The play is directed by Kishore Acharya. In ‘Silence! The Court is in Session’, Vijay Tendulkar takes the covers off a conformist society, to show us just what it is capable of when given the power to lord over those who live by their own rules.

With a drama woven into a drama, the play revolves around a theatre group about to perform a play in a village. As the plot thickens, the comforting mist of ‘pretend’ starts to dissolve revealing the frustrated, bitter and jaded lives of the performers. Light years ahead of its times, ‘Silence...’ exposes the dark side of middle class morality, where judgements are passed by the minute and silence is often the only recourse left to the defendant.   The tickets are priced at Rs100 for the 3.30 pm show and Rs 150 for the 7.30 pm show.

The play comes from Version One Dot Oh! (VODO), a young theatre group, based in Bangalore consisting of members from various backgrounds who share a common passion for theatre.

The cast includes Sanjeev Nair, Surabhi Herur, Amjad Prawej and Shashank Purushottam among others.
