Legal Aid Street Plays

The Legal Aid Society organized three Street Plays to raise awareness about important issues. The play staged at Parinati (a city based NGO) highlighted aspects relating to disability while two other plays staged at Chandanagore and Machlandpur dealt with women’s rights. Minor inconveniences like a bust diesel tank on the crew bus failed to deter our intrepid thespians as they wooed the crowd with their consummate art. The plays were also notable for the presence of two LLM students, and several non-Bengali speaking (as well as non-Bengali-understanding) students who managed to deliver their lines in flawless Bong.
