About Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti

Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti writes for stage, screen and radio. Her first play BEHSHARAM (SHAMELESS) broke box office records at Soho Theatre and the Birmingham Rep. BEHZTI (DISHONOUR) was sensationally closed after protests at the Birmingham Rep in December 2004. BEHZTI won the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, the play was then translated into French and did sell-out tours in France and Belgium. BEHUD (BEYOND BELIEF) was co-produced by Soho Theatre and Coventry Belgrade and shortlisted for the John Whiting Award. KHANDAN had a sell-out run at the Birmingham Rep before transferring to the Royal Court. Recent credits include ELEPHANT, Birmingham Rep; DISHOOM, Rifco/Watford Palace Theatre, FOURTEEN, Watford Palace Theatre; the feature film EVERYWHERE AND NOWHERE; DCI STONE, Radio 4; LONDONEE, Rich Mix; DEAD MEAT, Channel 4 and AN ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE (BBC World Service). Her first collection of plays, GURPREET KAUR BHATTI: PLAYS ONE, is also published by Oberon Books.
