    “What a stirring moment at the National. Indhu Rubasingham’s wonderful production of The
    Father and the Assassin puts on stage an important piece of history, an arresting personal
    story and a vital, distinctive theatrical language” The Observer ★★★★★
    The National Theatre announced the full cast for Anupama Chandrasekhar’s critically
    acclaimed The Father and the Assassin, directed by the Kiln Theatre’s Artistic Director,

    Indhu Rubasingham. This gripping new play by one of India’s most exciting playwrights,
    returns to the Olivier Theatre from 8 September.
    Mahatma Gandhi: lawyer, champion of non-violence, beloved leader. Nathuram Godse:
    journalist, nationalist – and the man who murdered Gandhi. This gripping play traces Godse’s
    life over 30 years during India’s fight for independence: from a devout follower of Gandhi,
    through to his radicalisation and their tragic final encounter in Delhi in 1948.

    Sasha Ghoshal (Bend it Like Beckham the Musical, Starvox Ents), Aysha Kala (The Motive
