Gurpreet Bhatti, Saturday 12th March 2011

This Saturday, British Sikh playwright Gurpreet Bhatti visited the Tripwires group to speak about her experiences as a writer. Her play, Behzti caused huge controversy when it was staged in Birmingham 2004, and eventually had to be cancelled due to protests from the local community. To this date, it has never been performed in the UK since.
