‘Circus Circus’ at BSA today

Theatre troupe Prachyanat will stage ‘Circus Circus’, a play written and directed by Azad Abul Kalam, today at the National Theatre Hall of Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy (BSA) in the capital’s Segun Bagicha Area.

This was the first full-length play by the group and was quickly recognised as one of the major productions of the year. The yearly publication of International Theatre Institute (ITI) in 1998 singled out Circus Circus as the most promising new play by a new theatre group.

‘The Great Bengal Circus’ once enjoyed widespread fame under its founder owner Laksman Das. The company is now being managed by his brother, who rebuilt the company that was ravaged during the liberation war of 1971.

Where: BSA, Shegun Bagicha

When: 7 pm, today
