Karim Khan’s new drama is an exploration of the increased risk of diabetes in people of South Asian background. Which is arguably a pretty dry subject for a play, but it does actually sound like he’s come up with a pretty compelling vehicle for it. It’s a love story between two older people, Hema (Shobu Kapoor) and Liaquat (Rehan Sheikh), who meet on a course for people suffering from type 2 diabetes. Natasha Kathi-Chandra directs.
