The Bhopalites witnessed the racially tense period of American history through the eyes of a prostitute in a play ‘The Fair lady’. The play was staged in Hindi language at Shaheed Bhavan Auditorium here on Thursday.
Originally written by Jean Paul Sartre, The Fair lady is an adaptayion of original story ‘A Respectful Prostitute’ is a French play which observes a woman prostitute, caught up racial riots of America.
It is an incredible psychological play that raises questions that have never been answered and will never be. What happens to the protagonist of the play lizzie Mackay can happen to any woman who is vulnerable enough to believe that times have changedIJ
The play is set in America, 1947, a period when the white man openly shows his hatred for the ‘nigger’.
