Celebrating ten years of Chhobir Haat, theatre troupe Pothonatoker Dol staged a street theatre production Open The Bioscope at the Chhobir Haat on December 20.
An audience of hundreds enjoyed the production written and directed respectively by the Pothonatoker Dol. They expressed realism with nostalgic expressions, as the eight minute production featured a childhood game with the popular poem Open the Bioscope and a parody of the poem.
The spectators were pleasantly surprised by the way in which all the crisis was presented and addressed with humour. The play addressed the trial of the war criminals, one-eleven, nine-eleven, political leaders and their activities, safety crisis, Islamic views on women, political power struggle and other contemporary social issues.
The emotional and realistic dialogue uttered in a satirical manner managed to reach the audience and keep them enthralled throughout the entire performance. By playing a game on stage, they were clear to the audience about how mass people become pawns in political power struggles.
Raka Tabassum, Samir Ahsan, Mamur Akter, Asaduzaman Nur, Amio Sankar, Rakib Ahmen, Anas, Omar Faruq and Salauddin Adhar acted in the drama.
