Tirthonkar by Shubochan Natya Shangshad

A scene from Tirthonkar

Tirthonkar: Young but talented female stage playwright of the country, Samina Lutfa Nitra who is an actress as well, in her play Tirthonkar has come up with the theme of an eternal problem and an inherent tendency of oppression in a society. This is a story of the legendary Sohrab-Rustom set against the restless civilization of today speeding towards globalization. The ego, greed, and savagery represented by the characters of the play have been dramatically resurrected in the contemporary history of the world.

Faiz Zahir is the director, set designer and light designer of the play. Through the storyteller, who acts as the pilgrim, the director unfolds the play.
