Theater troupe Prachyanat will stage their new in-house play ‘A Mother in Manville’ at the Studio Theatre Hall of Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy (BSA) in the capital today. The two shows of the play will be staged at 6:00pm and 7:30pm.
Based on the short story of American writer Marjorie Keenan Rawlings, the play has been dramatised by Md. Shawkat Hossain Sajib and directed by Farhad Hamid. Prachyanat in-house is a rehearsal room-based theatre practice, where members of the group do experimental work.
