<div>Hi, I’m Rishav, a writer-director based in Kathmandu. I'm here representing fade out pictures, a group of independent creatives. fade out pictures is partially producing the play and trying to raise funds through crowdfunding to bring an original Nepali theatre production, Jolene, to life.  Any small help will take us a step closer to realizing our play.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>About Jolene:
</div>
<div>Set in Kathmandu, this play is a dark, lyrical exploration of love, possession, and the fragile boundary between devotion and erasure. At its center is Mira, an insecure housewife whose entire sense of self is built around her husband, Madhav. What she experiences as complete, unquestionable love slowly reveals itself to be something
</div>
<div>far more precarious. Madhav, a self-made businessman, moves between comfort and restlessness, drawn not only to the stability Mira provides but also to the unsettling pull of something beyond it, embodied in Jolene, a graceful musician Madhav has been having an affair with. When Mira discovers her existence, it almost inevitably leads to murder. “Love Police”, a branch of Nepal Police who only deal only in crime of passion and  sing and dance their lines, take over the case. They try to philosophize, empathize, ridicule and ultimately solve the crime and find the murderer. Trapped inside a crazed delirium, Mira is willing to go to impossible lengths to get Madhav back but things fall apart until she and Madhav both are torn inside out, and Jolene becomes a permanent presence in both their lives.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Blending psychological thriller with musical theater, the play expands from an intimate domestic space into a wider meditation on love. It examines how love can become all-consuming, how identity dissolves within it, and how delusion can reshape reality. At its core, the play questions the myth of perfect love: when one person becomes the entire world for another, what is sustained, and what is quietly lost."
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
