Theatre troupe Prachyanat will stage its play Pulsirat after one year at Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy today.
The play, a theatrical adaptation of Palestinian writer and political activist Ghassan Kanafani’s novel Men in the Sun, is the 35th production of the troupe.
Pulsirat, directed by Kazi Toufiqul Islam Imon and dramatised by Monirul Islam Rubel, has been translated into Bangla by Masumul Alam. It depicts the plight of illegal migrants.
‘We will be staging the play after one year at Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy. It was last staged at BSA in January 2020. We will stage the play following health directives,’ Saiful Journal, senior member of Prachyanat, told New Age.
