It is often said that women are complicated mysterious creatures. And that’s because the narrative of ‘what a woman is’ has been hijacked and differs from the truth. What then is the truth? A dramatic comedy and musical, Three Women, uses Rabindranath Tagore’s fictional characters — Charu, Bimala,  and his sister-in-law and muse, Kadambari Devi — from its eponymous book to explore this question. Written, directed and musically designed by Isheeta Ganguly, the play was born from ponderings over women’s identity, potential and power to find and define themselves.
