Take part in a skyscraper dash…

If you're in Delhi…
Watch a broadcast of Everyman
British theatre at its best, Everyman follows the story of a man, who is forced to deal with the constantly approaching nature of death. As he finds a way to first escape death, and then finally accept it, significant, thought-provoking questions arise about life after death, and the true meaning of life, following in the footsteps of the 15th century drama.
When: 9 August, 7pm
Where: India Habitat Center, Lodhi Road, Delhi
If you're in Kolkata…
Attend Segard's art exhibition
Julien Segard's debut solo exhibition, Anywhere But Here, is filled with works that explore the underlying intimacy shared between the sharpness of urban structures, and free-flowing quality of nature. Showcasing both installations and paintings, this thought-provoking exhibition is definitely one to visit.
When: 8 August – 19 September, 6-8pm
Where: Experimenter Gallery, Kolkata
