Behzti (Dishonour) Past her prime, Min happily spends her life caring for her frail, vicious mother, Balbir. Today, for the first time in years, they’re heading out to the local Sikh temple. In a community where public honour is paramount, is there any room for the truth?

Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti
Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti's first play Behsharam (Shameless) broke box office records when it was produced in 2001. Her second play Behzti (Dishonour) won the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize in 2005. Behzti rocked the world of theatre when it was cancelled after protests in Birmingham, forcing the playwright into hiding, sparking an international debate about offence and freedom of expression. In 2014, Khandan (Family) was co-produced by the Birmingham Rep and the Royal Court Theatre.
