When philosophy student Bashir Ladha is accidentally nominated to a prestigious religious position, his family is ecstatic until they realize he’s more interested in podcasting than leading prayers. As Bashir questions the entire situation, his parents scramble to maintain appearances and navigate the growing confusion.
Fast, funny, and full of heart, The Wrong Bashir is a razor-sharp comedy about mistaken identity, generational pressure, and what happens when your community’s expectations don’t match who you really are.
Featuring the cast from Crow’s Theatre’s acclaimed production:
Sharjil Rasool (Bashir), Bren Eastcott (Nafisa), Sugith Varughese (Sultan), Nimet Kanji (Najma), Vijay Mehta (Al Nashir), Pamela Mala Sinha (Gulzar), Salim Rahemtulla (Dadipapa), Zaittun Esmail (Dadima), Parm Soor (Mansour)
