A two day Drama Festival was held under the aegis of Yuva Manch, the endearing platform for theatre enthusiasts in Lucknow. Envisioned six years ago by Dr. Urvashi Sahni, the founder of Study Hall Educational Foundation. Thus, July 20th & 21st were very special evenings at the Paryatan Bhavan auditorium. On the first day Vidyasthali, Kanar which is a part of the Study Hall Educational Foundation, staged their Sanskrit play which was adapted from a Gujrati play by the famous playwright Geeju Bhai. The first day of this festival also featured two Hindi Dance Dramas. These were ‘Meera’ by the girls of Study Hall Foundation’s Prerna School and “Kabira Khada Bazar Mein’ by the present & past pupils of Study Hall. As one of its actor’s Aiman stated after the English Play, ‘A Visitor from Forest Hills’ that the challenge was “acting in a situation which seemed like a lively comedy but which bore the underlying strain of a near tragedy”, says it all.
Thus congratulations to the Study Hall family for laying stronger foundations and building greater milestones in this ‘universe of care’. Let’s now look out for Yuva Manch 2013!
