Happy Birthday Sunita
 
Written by Harvey Virdi
 
**** What's On Stage
 
“Explores British Asian bi-culturalism with wit, humour and intelligence.” (2014 production)
 
The Johals are celebrating Sunita's birthday in Mum’s new kitchen, and you’re invited to the
surprise party.
 
It’s not just the dhal that’s bubbling under the surface – with decades of unfinished business,
everyone’s true selves start to burst out when they least expect it. And it’s up to the family to pick
each other back up and celebrate themselves for who they truly are.
 
Unexpected guests, butter-free roti and skeletons in the cupboard aren’t enough to stop them
busting out some classic Punjabi shapes in the kitchen! Join the Johal family for a wild ride that
will leave you laughing, crying, and talking all the way home.
 
Rifco Theatre Company revives this sell-out comedy, with a new cast and fresh script. Put on your
birthday party finery and get ready for a samosa saga.
