Lokadharmi stages new play
The Lokadharmi Centre for Theatre Training Research and Performance is celebrating its 15th year of theatre activities with a play based on a Malayalam novel written by the late N. Mohanan. The play, `Innalathe Mazha,' which shares the name of the novel, narrates the story of `Parayi Pettu Panthirukulam,' a popular legend of Kerala. The legend recounts the life of 12 sons born to Vararuchi, a Brahmin priest, and his wife. Panchami belonged to the Paraya community. Mohanan's novel presents the legend in a different perspective. The play, written and directed by Ullas Mavilayil portrays the legend highlighting the personality of Panchami. Sumesh Chittooran plays Vararuchi, while Charu Narayan dons the role of Panchami. The play will be staged on October 23 at Changampuzha Park, Edappally.
