Parthapratim Deb’s play “Padma Nodir Majhi”, adapted from the Bengali classic by Manik Bandopadhyay, depicts the harsh, poverty-stricken life of fishermen along the powerful, unpredictable Padma River.
This production by Baghajatin Alaap follows Kuber, a poor boatman struggling with nature, societal pressures, and his own desires, whose life is dramatically altered by a storm and the arrival of the charismatic merchant Hossain Miya with his dream of a utopia on Moina Island.
The drama explores themes of survival, community, class division, desire, and the seductive but ultimately perilous allure of a promised land.
Music forms the heart of this theatre; it promises a powerhouse of entertainment along the boundaries of a grave societal dilemma.
