ಫ್ಯಾಷನ್ Play

Now a days it is becoming a fashion to watch English plays. Whether you are interested or not, to make a point in the social circuit, you have to tell such and such play I have seen. Recently famous play Antigone was performed in Chennai. Of course Nasiruddeen Shah was the star performer. But look at the price tag! Rs 200-3000 only. Now you can easily say for whom they are performing - only for elite people and not for theatre loving persons. Ordinary theatre loving person can not love to sit in the balcony at a far distance from the stage bypaying Rs.200. Then for whom they are staging the play? God alone knows! no God is Dead!
