JAMMU, Nov 10: Theatre group ‘Natrang’ here today staged Hindi play ‘Tauba-Tauba’, written by Rajinder Kumar Sharma and directed by Neeraj Kant.
The play opens where one ‘Anokhe Lal’ has converted his home as rehearsal place as he is the director of a play which is scheduled to be staged within few days.
As the play proceeds, it appears that no one is serious in doing rehearsal other than the director. The artists, who used to plead for a single role, have turned pricy now and come up with different excuses to skip rehearsals. At the top of it, the newly appointed servant adds to the confusion and comes up with a new problem every time he enters the room.
‘Anokhe Lal’ was worried about the performance of the play as nothing was going right. Actors were forgetting the lines, people were coming late in rehearsal and on top of it the tickets of the show have already been sold. The ultimate crisis occur when the director comes to know that the actor who was doing the role of father of hero is not doing the play as he has to go out of station for some personal work.
He decides to prepare his newly appointed servant to do the character, who reluctantly agrees but real trouble erupts when real father of ‘Anokhe Lal’ arrives to whom the servant introduced himself as father of ‘Anokhe Lal’ on which both the servant and Anokhe Lal were beaten by the real father.
Actors who performed in the play were Mihir Gujral, Aadesh Dhar, Vandana Thakur, Kushal Bhat, Vishal Sharma and Sanket; lights were executed by Neeraj Kant Sharma and the show was coordinated by Mohd. Yaseen.
