Nitin Vengurlekar has performed his nonsensical poetry and microfiction at defunct staples of the Sydney alternative comedy circuit such as Griffin Up Late, Club Cab Sav, and Cardio Church Gala, since the 2010s. His stage show ‘The Lonely Spirits Variety Hour’ was performed in three episodes at Bankstown Arts Centre and Griffin’s Batch Festival across 2017-18, and was adapted into a feature film in 2022. In 2019 he completed a PhD in Theatre and Film Studies at UNSW that analysed the workings of the choreographic in the dance-theatre of Pina Bausch and the film comedies of Jacques Tati.
