Synopsis

“Sammy” is the incredible story of Mahatma Gandhi told by an ensemble of actors in a modern and exciting manner. Led by a lively debate between Mohan and the irrepressible Mahatma in him, the play highlights Gandhi’s relationships and how he changed everyone he touched. It traces the transformation of the young Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi from a naïve, tongue-tied lawyer into a shrewd politician and finally a Mahatma.
