About this listen

“You’re the one with the identity crisis mum, not us!”

Acclaimed actor and writer, Sudha Bhuchar (Mary Poppins Returns, Mogul Mowgli) presents, Evening Conversations. Middle class, middle aged, multicultural mother of millennial sons, Sudha lives a ‘squeezed middle’ life in Wimbledon. As she navigates her career, family and returning to India as a NRI (Non-Resident Indian), she is prompted to investigate her own sense of home and place in the world. Evening Conversations is a warm-hearted monologue inspired by Sudha’s banter with her dual-heritage (Pakistani/East African Indian) millennial sons who have grown up in leafy Wimbledon while her life has spanned three continents. She invites her boys to ‘crack open a cold one’ and share their views on life. Will her fiercely British sons see their heritage as a source of strength or an unwelcome inheritance? Inextricably shaped by Sudha’s cross-continental childhood, a far cry from her sons’ upbringing in leafy Wimbledon, Evening Conversations is warm hearted, humorous, and truthful.

Written and performed by Sudha Bhuchar and directed by Kristine Landon-Smith, with music by Arun Ghosh.

Critic reviews

"Full of truth and beauty. Really brave. My mum kept on poking me. You’ve given her a lot of ammo!" (Riz Ahmed)

"Bhuchar radiates knowledge, warmth and real likability." (The Guardian)

"Wonderfully ebullient, witty, at times wickedly funny and poignantly political, this is a show that crosses ages, cultures, and generations." (Carole Woddis)
