  Teenager Sati loves Arsenal striker Ian Wright. Her sister Jaspal dreams of a singing career as a Karen Carpenter impersonator. But since their Mum left on a pilgrimage to India seven years before, Jaspal's life has been spiralling out of control...So what if she smokes the odd spliff and turns the odd trick? When Sati starts asking questions Jaspal can't handle, the pressure begins to build. The truth about the past that everybody has kept from Sati has to come out...Behsharam is Gurpreet Bhatti's first play. Set in Birmingham, it is a bold and original new comedy about one family's secrets and obsessions, dreams and dysfunctions.
