Script-Sunita Lad Bhamray and Rahul Phondke

'TANGLED is a dark and mystical twist on a beloved tale. A tormented woman’s haunting story… a mystical wanderer… a fractured world!!! This surreal and mystical twist of the tale takes the viewer through many highs and lows, exploring yet another mystery of the human psyche. A seemingly innocuous and whimsical sunny morning at a neighbourhood park catapults you to the dark and mystical world of the protagonists... " All's well that ends well," or is it really well...
TINGARA BUDDANA
Director - Soumya Verma
Writer - Chandrashekhar Patil
Cast - Nidhi Chopra Khanna, Lagnajit Patnaik, Vishal Khatri
“Tingara Buddana”, one of our four mystical tales, is a widely acclaimed and wonderfully absurd play by award-winning Kannada poet Patil. With its sharp wit and surreal humour, the play offers a playful yet piercing commentary on the absurdities of life and death. Blending the fantastical with the philosophical, it has delighted audiences through multiple performances and remains a standout in contemporary Indian theatre.
We are proud to present the Singapore premiere of this much-loved and irreverently funny classic
CLEAN
Director - Yogesh Tadwalker
Cast - Yogesh Tadwalker
CLEAN’ is a powerful stage performance that mystically brings invisible situations, characters, and emotions to life through the art of pantomime.
By stripping the stage bare of all theatrical elements like words, fancy music, lighting shifts, or elaborate costumes, it immerses the viewers in a raw, unfiltered narrative that focuses on bold movements and vivid expressions.
Delve into yet another aspect of our Mystical world with this interesting addition to the festival. Our stage, your perception….
THE ACT
Mystical Myths has always been known for its entertaining, strong content and creative prowess. The Act is a mischievously magical journey exploring a slice of the mystical with its own brand of madness.
The ACT isn’t an anthology. It’s a stitched-together fever dream — a tightly edited, wordlessly eloquent, meaningfully absurd act.
