Nagorik Natya Sampraday will stage its latest production titled ‘Open Couple’ by Dario Fo and Franca Rame, today at the Studio Theatre Hall of Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy, in Segun Bagicha of the capital. This tale of a particular marriage begins with a focus on the husband and his desire to have extra-marital affairs, much to the chagrin and despair of his wife. In a turn of events, when his wife accepts the notion of an open relationship and strikes up her own affair, she enjoys the sense of liberation, and her husband is at his wits end! Jealousy comes to the fore in this classic farce and this satire explores whether an open relationship can ever be truly successful. Ziaul Hasan Kislu and Sara Zaker are expected to play the respective roles in the play. The play ‘Open Couple’ has been translated and directed by Sara Zaker.
