Decades after the war, Manjira comes face to face with a man from her past — a man whose presence disrupts the fragile stillness of her present. What unfolds is not just a confrontation, but a reckoning with long-silenced truths and unresolved histories.

Told as a suspenseful thriller in the Brechtian theatre style, Manjira: The Muted Melody deliberately breaks the emotional spell of traditional theatre — not to make you feel, but to make you think. It asks urgent questions about justice, memory, and the price of silence in a society eager to move on.

This is a play where the tension builds not only onstage, but within the audience’s own mind.

A play that takes place in a lavish setting. A bone chilling tale of betrayal, ego, human behavior and heinous human thoughts that leads to unexpected and unfathomable consequences. A teacher, a father and a few friends come together in an ill fated evening that will set the stage for a brilliant crime thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seats and keep wanting for more.

A wild, witty ride with "Benumbari"—a fun and sharp look at identity, image, and all the little ways we pretend to have it all together. Written and directed by Birat Dahal, this show is brought to life by the talented folks at Ace Theater Club, powered by the production team at Replay Films, and proudly presented by Ace Institute of Management, with marketing handled by the creative minds at Clayway Communications. As the drama unfolds, one question hangs in the air: who is the real Benumbari? Is it the loud one? The quiet one? Or maybe... all of us?
