By 13 July, 2016January 11th, 2017Uncategorized

Inspired by Mahashweta Devi’s story Why-Why Girl published by Tulika Books the poem of Safdar hashmi is adapted and directed by Shaili Sathyu and choreographed byHamsa Moily.

How often do children ask questions and actually get answers from adults? And how often do adults make an attempt to enter the magical world of questions raised by children?

The play tells the story of Moyna and many similar children, who always have so many questions to ask. Performed through dance and live music the writing gives insights into an innocent world.

Kyun-Kyun Ladki has been performed for schools, at theatre festivals and at theatres across Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Patna, Guwahati, Kolkata and Delhi, including TIFLI, International Theatre Festival for Young Audiences.
