About the Project

📣 AUDITION CALL | BHISHMA
A Classical English Drama from the Mahabharatha

A powerful stage production based on the life and vow of Bhishma, one of the most formidable and tragic figures of the Great Epic Mahabharatha, is seeking performers.

This production brings to life chilling episodes from the epic — vows made at the cost of love, silence chosen over justice, and the burden of dharma carried across generations.
*Last date for audition submission : Jan 31st 2026*

🗓 Proposed Performance: *Spring of 2027*

🎭 Roles: All roles, including the central character, for male and female actors
🎙 Languages: English

🎭 ABOUT THE PLAY
Bhishma traces the life of the warrior who chose duty over desire, and loyalty over life itself. From his eternal vow to the battlefield of Kurukṣetra, the play explores sacrifice, destiny, and the cost of unwavering obedience to dharma.

This is a serious, text‑driven production rooted in classical storytelling, not a modern adaptation.
