B3 staged at Jyotsna Bhole Sabhagruha in Pune

The Pune based theatre group of working professionals,

Pushkar Rangmanch

, brought back to stage B3, the Hindi play scripted in 2005 by the late playwright, Shahid Anwar. The play revolved around a teacher who is conducting a class on World War 2. “B3 stands for the abbreviated name of

Blackboard Brigade

, a union that is formed by the six students who are all confused about why they are taught about the war that happened ages ago. They refuse to understand that it’s important to learn from the past too. What happened next and how the teacher convinces the students is sure to move you,” says

Sonal Mahajan

, founder of Pushkar Rangmanch.

The play gaves out a message that one should not form an opinion on the basis on what someone said on social media or by getting influenced by the opinion given out by someone in power. One should be rational and question the authority,” she adds.

The auditorium saw a jam packed audience and they were seen interacting with the actors too after the play.
