JAMMU, Dec 29: Theatre group ‘Natrang’ here today staged play ‘Topian’ written by Mani Madhukar and directed by Neeraj Kant.
The play is a dig on the lusty politicians who can change colours faster than a chameleon just to remain in power.
For them, the mission is to befool the public and for that they have the requisite theatrical art, know-how, expertise and the excellence to transform themselves to any colour or attire as per the situation and the requirement.
Ironically, same faces make their way to power by hiding real faces in new masks. They have been changing the colour of their caps and not their mindset.
In play, two neighbours pledge to change the political scene and they are shown looking for alternatives.
Each time they come across a person they meet only those wearing different caps and attire offering them a variety of manifestoes.
This way they succumb to his tactics. Over time, when they find that nothing is changing, both muster courage and strip the person selling those dreams. Surprisingly, inside clothes they find that he is the same person and every time he used to come to them in different attire.
The playwright has successfully portrayed that the politicians only change their caps and their colors just to befool the public.
Artists who performed in the play were Kartik Kumar, Adaksh Bagal and Aryan Sharma. Lights were designed by Neeraj Kant whereas Mehak Chib scored music and the show was coordinated by Mohd. Yaseen.
