A Place with the Pigs

A Place with the Pigs: A Riveting Theatrical Experience

Athol Fugard’s gripping play, A Place with the Pigs, is set to take the stage once again, bringing to life the absurd yet poignant tale of a Russian soldier’s self-imposed exile. Directed by the acclaimed Dnyanesh Moghe, this production promises to be an intense exploration of guilt, redemption, and the human longing for freedom.

Inspired by a bizarre yet true story, A Place with the Pigs follows Pavel Ivanovitch, a Russian deserter from World War II who spends decades hiding in his pigsty to avoid punishment. The setting—a damp, claustrophobic sty—becomes a metaphor for the oppressive weight of his guilt and fear. The play navigates themes of personal dignity, the psychological impact of war, and the desperate quest for societal acceptance, all within a runtime of 2 hours.

Meet the Director: Dnyanesh Moghe

Dnyanesh Moghe, a multi-faceted theater and film artist, brings his wealth of experience to this production. A graduate of Kala Academy and St. Xavier’s Mumbai, Moghe has an impressive portfolio that spans acting, directing, and cinematography. His directorial credits include Shantata! Court Chalu Ahe, Lights Out, Sageena Mahato, and even a previous adaptation of A Place with the Pigs (Par Prasthan). His vision for the play, combined with his extensive knowledge of transcreating global plays for Indian audiences, ensures a compelling adaptation.
