The Deranged Marriage

Details

The Deranged Marriage is set in a British Asian Wedding celebration. A humorous yet emotional journey looking at the truth; coloured with the vibrant traditions and cultures of Indian weddings. Welcome to the marriage of two families, where the bride and groom are glorified extras. Be our guest, and join the aunties as they croon tunelessly at the Ladies Sangeet Function. Reserve your place, in the wedding procession and prepare for the mandatory melodrama. Relish the lip-smacking ladoos, while maniac family members stage their most ambitious wedding yet. If marriages are made in heaven, why is this one becoming hell?
