"Behroopiya Entertainers in assocation with Theatreact, Sweden presents Anonymous A Clownesque Tragical Magical Comedy. In todays world, we are constantly filming or being filmed. We continuously film events in our life instead of experiencing them. Somewhere on the way, have we lost our choice to be anonymous?
After loosing his home, Popo has decided to be anonymous. Will he ever succeed? Will he ever find a new home? Welcome to a highly experimental, interactive, physical comedy for a rib tickling experience. This show is a premier for the Delhi Audience.

5:00 pm and 7:30 pm : Tragedy of Madbeth
"Behroopiya Entertainers in assocation with Theatreact, Sweden presents Tragdy of Madbeth. One man, One throne, One crown, One hilariously tragic experience. Amidst thunder and
lightening, three witches meet with Beth and Banquo, from there on Beth tries his best to live up to all the prophesies with his imaginary friend Banquo. Together they narrate this murderous tale
sincerely.
Welcome to a roller coaster ride in the world created by Beth and Banquo. The Tragedy of Madbeth is a highly interactive physical comedy inspired by Shakespeare's classic. A profound allegory that dissolves the space between observer and performer. The performance is a combination of slapstick, acrobatics, mime, songs and improvisations.
The Tragedy of Madbeth is a devised theatre piece. It has been played for a wide range of audience in Europe, Israel, West Bank and India. The play was invited by UNESCO Centre for Peace to tour in USA (2012). The performance was a special pick at the Stockholm Fringe festival 2013. Prague Shakespeare Company hosted the performance (2013) at the National Theatre, Czech Republic.

7:00 pm : Laugh Shaff
"Behroopiya Entertainers in assocation with Loony Goons presents LAUGH SHAAF, Standup comedy Act by Neeti Palta and Abijit Ganguly.Neeti Palta brings to the English Stand Up Comedy scene in India what it sorely lacks – a female perspective. Being amongst the only
English female stand ups in the Indian circuit she has the unique advantage of presenting the female point of view on a variety of subjects – the life of a woman in India, Indian parents, uniquely Indian idiosyncrasies, current affairs, daily irritants or whatever topic
catches her fancy, while occasionally indulging in a spot of male bashing (Ok, a lot of that).
She has done over 150 shows across Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Udaipur and Goa.
Neeti was voted as the best Stand Up Comic at the Oz Fest and will be India’s first Stand Up to be sent to Melbourne for the prestigious
Melbourne Comedy Festival 2013.
She also established one of Delhi’s oldest and most successful comedy outfits -Loony Goons – in which she hosts and performs. It’s a pioneer
outfit that flies in the best comedians from all across India to give comedy night a truly complete ‘Indian’ feel.
Abijit Ganguly has been performing as a Stand-Up artist for three years now, and is presently around 200+ shows old. His humour is essentially anything and everything he finds funny, be it stereotype observations, alcoholism, office experience, student life, relationships marriage comparison, daily experiences, parties, bengali-punjabi tussle, beggars, media, Delhi metro, Facebook, societal problems, middle class life, etc.
Mostly, his sets are anecdotes and he relies on audience relating to what they hear in order to get the laughs.
Abijit has performed extensively in the cities of Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore and occasionally in the cities of Pune, Chandigarh, Lucknow and Chennai. He has performed regularly in the Best of Stand-up lineup at The Comedy Store.
