Quotes, Testimonials, Headlines
• Kultar’s Mime is a powerful drama, vividly evoking the experience of violence that
beset Sikhs in Delhi following the assassination of Indira Gandhi. The voices of
violation connect these events to murderous pogroms the world over – Dr. Diana
Eck, Harvard Professor & Director of The Harvard Pluralism Project
• Kultar's Mime is a compelling work whose stark and economic nature only
underscores the violence and loss experienced by these characters, who tell their
stories through a juxtaposition of poetic verse, body movement, and self-
narrative. Even in its contemporality, Sarbpreet Singh's use of poetry for telling the
story, the actors' emphatic gestures and postures, and the igniting of an intense
emotional response in its audiences, all link "Kultar's Mime" with the great
dramaturgical traditions of classical India. - Cecelia Levin, Ph.D, Art Historian
• Thirty years after Sikh carnage, Boston playwright underscores truths about
victimhood and violence – Beena Sarwar, noted Pakistani Journalist
• Kultar's Mime stirs Punjab, heads to UK – Times of India Headline
• Play highlights riot-hit children’s plight - The Tribune Headline
• Saga of lost lives – The Pioneer Headline
• 30 yrs After Sikh Riots, Play Paints its Horrors in Music, Poetry – Indian Express
