Show Info

Written and performed by Nikhil Parmar
Directed by Georgia Green

“No more quiet, no more model minority, no more wacky best friend. At least when we were the bad guys we existed.”

Meet Zayan, an under-employed actor and over-employed dealer who sees himself as the hapless lead in the sitcom that is his life. Everyone else sees him as lazy, self-centered, and useless – if they even notice him at all. As Zayan attempts to transition from being neglected to being notorious, we see how a man whose brushes with oppression, grief, and the sneaking suspicion that he’s become invisible have driven him to the unforgivable.

Invisible is a hilariously dark story tracking one man’s desperate struggle to be seen as the hero of his own narrative. 

A new Bush Theatre commission written and performed by Nikhil Parmar (Trollied).
