THE PLAY…..
What is love????
An expression……… but is it necessary to express it……….????? love is not love without expressing?? It is! But without expressing it how can someone realize how much you love him or her?
Means it is necessary to express our love!!! But how??? Very terrible question is this because some people express their love openly…… some silently……..
Some through eyes….. Some through communication…… But what kind of love this was………. Which was neither unwrapped nor secreted, it was neither in the eyes nor in the conversation ….. Thereafter it was there….. Is this the reason why people called it FLIRT?
Let’s see in the play FLIRT……………..
DIRECTOR’S NOTE…..
Enactment of a story….. A popular medium of presenting a play in recent time, but it is important to have some most desirable things to present it…. A decent story…… its attribute of conversion in drama……. And spirit of the story which remain unchanged even after its conversion into drama. After reading lots of stories we read ‘Malini’, a story written by famous, renowned story-writer Mr. Narendra Kohli and we found that it has all the qualities mentioned above with all dramatic elements.
We talk to the writer of the story and the give their kind approval to presenting it. We dramatized the story…… all the team fulfills all the tasks given to them by director and tries hard to present an excellent presentation in front of you.
