Kathputliyan Theatre's short plays explore tales of passion, resilience and dreams

Kathputliyan Theatre Group will present their two short plays Pashmina and Didi IAS this weekend. Written by Mrinal Mathur, both the plays are directed by Zafer Mohiuddin.

Set in the backdrop of the tragic events that took place in Kashmir, Pashmina is a heartwarming story of humans that takes viewers through a journey of shared loss and grieving. Revolving around an old couple who takes a trip to the valley, the story starts and ends because of a Pashmina - which turns out to have much more significance than just a piece of cloth.

The second play, titled Didi IAS is a political satire that explores bureaucracy, the artistic environment of the country, and the role of dissent. The play highlights the unethical bureaucracy and red-tapism prevalent in the government and among its officers; how everything is about power, control, and influence, rather than the benefits of the people.

On June 4, 4.30 & 7.30 pm at Alliance Francaise, Vasanth Nagar, Bangalore
