C sharp C blunt is based on the concept of the loop. An electronic musician, live on stage creates and layers loops from live sound. The loop in its nature reflects the training of the singer through endless repetition and also the process of cultural and social programming. This cultural programming also defines the specific way girls and women are supposed to behave.

The play looks at traditional gender roles as engrained by culture versus the woman as the globalized consumer living in a new market that caters to her wants and needs. We look at the performer as a site of battle between purity and consumption, between servitude and ego, between being-looked-at-ness and self-determination.

C sharp C blunt has performed in India, Berlin and Singapore. In 2014 C sharp C blunt toured Switzerland, Kerala, Kolkata, Chennai, Delhi, Bangalore and Mumbai.
