This week, we present one of the most acclaimed American playwright Alice Gerstenberg's famous one-act play: He Said and She Said, adapted for an Indian setting. Isha invites two friends, Mrs. Puri and Dhani, to dine with her and her husband Lakshya. However, upon arriving, Mrs. Puri has a piece of gossip for Isha about Dhani that threatens to ruin the night and to end friendships.

As in Alice Gerstenberg's other plots, the hallmark of He Said and She Said is the clever word play is used so that characters rarely finish their thoughts or say exactly what they mean, making other characters assume the worst and relate a version of the story more twisted than the last.
Directed by: Poulomi Sarkar
Performed by:
Isha: Preeti Bhat
Lakshya: Harshavardhana
Mrs. Puri: Sayantanee Dutta
