SUMMER THEATRE FESTIVAL 2011 ended with KAFKA !!!

Recently I have been following the great Indian Theatre event in Delhi. This happened at National School of Drama and known as SUMMER THEATRE FESTIVAL 2011 !!! This festival started in May month of 2011 and ended in June with last play as 'Kafka - Ek Adhyay'.

I also invited two of my friends to join for this play and I felt bad when I realized that it was very serious play. Most of the times, it's always better to watch comedy play to start. Or at least something which is not very serious. Kafka was exactly opposite :) Now I have committed to take them for some good comedy play. But I really enjoyed the whole Summer Theatre Festival 2011 and watched all the plays this time. My Favorite from all the plays is 'Jaat hi Poocho Sadhu Ki' and 'begum ka takia' was the play which I watched third time.

Summer Theatre Festival 2011 @ National School of Drama, Delhi, is about to end during this week...

Summer Thetare festival 2011 started on 19th May 2011 and now it's time of completion during this week. It has been a wonderful journey so far and ending will be done with "Kafka- Ek Adhaya". This was first time when I watched all the plays of Summer Fest and going for Kafka on Wednesday. Last show of the play is on 16th June 2011 !!!

Summer Theatre Festival 2011 is going on at National School of Drama in Delhi and it showcases some of the brilliant plays from Indian Theatre. "JAAT HI POOCHHO SADHU KI" is the most popular play. When I went to NSD, 3 weeks before the beginning of festival, "JAAT HI POOCHHO SADHU KI" was already house full for all four days and I got tickets for all other plays.... One of my friend arranged a special pass later and I was able to witness this masterpiece. Click on the photograph above to see more photographs from this play with more details !!!
