The first play collection of Rifco Theatre's work, this book is a celebration, a call to action, and an essential read for anyone interested in theatre, storytelling, and cultural representation. Rifco's work is dedicated to amplifying British South Asian voices in theatre, showcasing stories that explore identity, tradition, and cultural duality. Despite their significant contributions, British South Asian artists remain underrepresented in the arts. Their work is often fragmented and difficult to access, limiting opportunities for both artists and audiences. Rifco creates a structured platform that not only celebrates British South Asian theatre makers but ensures their voices are heard. Through curation, engagement, and advocacy, Rifco make these stories more visible and accessible to wider audiences. In this, their first play collection, the work explores cultural identity, family, LGBTQ+ representation, activism, and social change - offering nuanced portrayals that go beyond stereotypes and redefine representation. Featuring the plays The Deranged Marriage and There's Something About Simmy by Pravesh Kumar MBE; Dishoom by Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti; and Meri Christmas and Miss Meena & The Masala Queens by Harvey Virdi, this edited volume is introduced by the company and makes these works available in print for the first time.
Harvey Virdi is a writer and actress whose writing credits include There's Something About Simmy, The Deranged Marriage, and three RIFCO Arts productions: Happy Birthday Sunita in 2014 and 2023, Miss Meena & the Masala Queens in 2017, and Meri Christmas in 2006.
Rifco Theatre is one of the UK's most successful touring theatre companies. The company develops, produces and tours vibrant, accessible and ambitious new plays and musicals that reflect and celebrate the British South Asian contemporary experiences. Rifco Theatre has been working with British South Asian artists and producing work since 2000.
