In Hot Water


This is Act 1 of a radio play I wrote in April 2007 for the BBC International Radio Playwriting Competition.


List of Characters:

Mr Chatterjee, a Bengali Indian, recently husband

Mrs Chatterjee, another Bengali Indian, recently wife

Yves, a French tourist, interested in the mysteries of Tantric sex

Maya, a young American seeker, with the stars of enlightenment in her eyes

Tenzin Norbu-la, an elderly Buddhist monk

Swami Drown-ananda, a venerable Indian yogi in the nude

Scene: The action is set high in the Himalayas, on the last piece of land left before water from the melting poles has swallowed up the whole of the earth.
