Witness a powerful exploration of heritage and belonging through time.
Two people are standing closely, holding hands, and looking at each other. The woman is dressed in a red saree with gold jewelry, while the man is in a green shirt. Several people are in the background.

About Counting and Cracking

Belvoir St. Theatre’s Counting and Cracking, by S. Shakthidharan and directed by Eamon Flack, comes to NYU Skirball this fall for its North American Premiere after critically acclaimed productions in Australia and the United Kingdom. The sweeping, episodic play features nineteen actors from across the globe on a multi-generational journey of a Sri Lankan-Australian family from 1956-2004.

Radha fled Sri Lanka with her unborn child as the nation struggled with conflict. Two decades later, her son Siddhartha, now an Australian man who knows little of his family’s background, receives a call from the past that changes everything he thought he knew, and who he thought he was. One of the most highly anticipated premieres of 2024, Counting and Cracking is a joyous, epic story of family, forgiveness, the ghosts we leave behind, and the power of love. Counting and Cracking is a Belvoir St Theatre & Kurinji co-production and is presented in partnership with The Public Theater.
