Two plays ,‘Bade Bhai Sahab’ and ‘Hatyare,’ were staged in city here on Wednesday. The plays were performed at Mayaram Srujan Bhavan.
The plays were directed by Gopal Dubey. Bade Bhai Sahab is an exclusively unique story by Munshi Premchand. Another play Hatyare is a story by Amarkant which talked about how two youngsters ruined their lives.
The event began with staging Bade Bhai Sahab. Bade Bhai Saheb tells a story of the relationship between two brothers Kamta Prasad who is 14 years old and Samta Prasad who is nine years old. Both live away from home in a hostel to study. Kamta, the elder brother, spends all his time reading.
Samta, the younger brother, is just the opposite of Kamta. He is more interested in playing with friends than in studying. But he is terrified of his elder brother and to please him starts studying the minute he sees him. Both the brothers try to prove that his way of living is correct that leads to comic situations all through the play.
Next play was Hatyare. The play focused on two young men who are talking about themselves and are trying to prove that who is better than whom. Throughout the day, they kept roaming while chatting and having fun. During the evening, both of them went to a sex worker after consuming alcohol. But when it was the time for them to pay, they ran away applying a trick. A man ran behind them to take the money but one of the youngsters took out a knife and killed the man. After killing him both of them disappear in dark. Both the plays were splendidly performed by the artists of Bhoomika theatre troupe.
