Musical Theatre- Sangeet Sanshaykallol

 Saw an entirely different kind of play- a musical, called a sangeet-natak. Instead of dialogues, the characters converse through songs. Specially written for the situation, of course. This was a great traditional art form that's almost dead now. I got to see one such play, Sangeet Sanshaykallol, with a plot like a Hrishikesh Mukherjee film. Spouses who suspect each other of ifidelity, without justification. Superb performances from everyone in the cast!


Hope the tradition gets revived.
