Made In India

A new play about a woman’s desperate journey across the world to fulfil her dream of becoming a mother will be performed at The Dukes in Lancaster in March.

Made In India is set in a surrogacy clinic in Gujurat—motherhood’s last chance saloon for Londoner Eva.

There she meets dairy worker and single mother Aditi who is willing to become a surrogate as a lifeline out of poverty for herself and her young daughters.

This all-female play reveals a largely untold deeply human story set in a country once regarded as the world’s "surrogacy hub".

Written by new British Asian playwright Satinder Chohan, Made In India is produced by Tamasha, Britain’s foremost touring theatre company producing new plays which have played a key role in driving the crossover of Asian culture into the British mainstream, most notably with East is East.

It visits The Dukes from March 2 to 4. Age guidance is 14+.
