MARITAL BLITZ

(Ashwin Singh, Nesan Pather, Kajal Maharaj and Derosha Moodley)

LiFT Entertainment present a tour de force of comedy, dance drama and action in their first theatrical outing, Marital Blitz. Starring film and theatre actress Kajal Maharaj (Broken Promises, Isidingo, Spice 'n Stuff) and her husband actor, musician (Eighteen Eighteen) and author Nesan Pather, the play explores the murky waters of marriage and miscommunication.

Penned by the couple and veteran playwright Ashwin Singh (To House, Looney Lahnee Show, Spice 'n Stuff), Marital Blitz also stars actress Derosha Moodley, previously of Broken Promises fame.

Through misdemeanours, miscommunications and plain old misunderstandings, newlyweds Sanvir (Nesan Pather) and Shalini (Kajal Maharaj) must cope with the strains and stresses of a "comfortable" marriage, the responsibilities of their new life and Shalini's sneaking suspicion that her husband may be hiding something. Coupled with Sanvir's mysterious and hilariously eccentric boss Mr. Poona (Ashwin Singh) is his wife Auntie Dolly (Derosha Moodley) and Shalini's best friend, hairdresser Desree (Derosha Moodley). What on earth is Poona up to? Is the sweet Sanvir really up to something or is Shalini just being paranoid?

Marital Blitz puts marriage, misdemeanour and ridiculous conclusions into a concoction of action packed fun! Directed by Ashwin Singh, the play promises to keep audiences thoroughly entertained. Performances on August 12 and 13 at the Suncoast Supernova for 3 shows only! Book early to avoid disappointment by calling 031 328 3349/38 or Teleticket on 0861 24 6362
