Get ready for a one-of-a-kind night at The Junction this December as Third Half Theatre brings back It’s All Been Done Before, an anthology of eight powerful short plays by the award-winning Dubai playwright, Sanjeev Dixit. Running from December 6th to 8th, this unique production explores the breadth of human experience, blending laughter, reflection, and drama in a truly Dubai-born celebration of storytelling.
After an impressive run last year, Dixit’s anthology returns by popular demand, bringing with it a lineup of plays that have not only captivated audiences in Dubai but also reached stages in Delhi, Los Angeles, and Mumbai. For nearly two decades, Dixit has been a defining voice in the Dubai theatre scene, known for his distinct style that combines physicality, humor, and modern-day themes, all while honoring the timeless craft of theater.
Dixit’s works, ranging from comedies to tragedies, suspenseful horrors to farces, are especially cherished for their social relevance. This year’s lineup offers something special for every theater lover—whether it’s a poignant dramedy or a thrilling musical, each piece promises a fresh perspective on the universal experiences of love, fear, joy, and loss. “The overwhelmingly positive response from both the cast and audiences, particularly the younger generation, has been incredibly humbling,” shares Dixit. “Bringing these pieces back to the stage feels like a reunion with old friends.”
Since its founding in 2012, Third Half Theatre has consistently elevated the Dubai theater landscape. From the grand stages of the Hollywood Stella Adler Theatre to New Delhi’s Kamani Auditorium and Mumbai’s Opera House, the troupe’s performances have earned acclaim worldwide, underscoring its commitment to original, engaging storytelling that’s deeply rooted in Dubai’s creative spirit.
