Event Description: Behroopiya Entertainers and Upstage Productions in association with The Piano Man Gurugram presents Rednose Entertainments Kalidasa’s Shakuntalam - Agar Pura Kar Paye Toh! 

It is based on Kalidas’ s classic Abhigyan Shakuntalam. 

Synopsis:

What if the clowns start to reinterpret Kalidasa’s classic?  Will the clowns be able to handle the pressure of 2500-year-old text? Or will they just fool around? Welcome to Shakuntalam - Agar Pura Kar Paye Toh…  

Shakuntalam is an interactive physical comedy trying to merge clown and mime techniques with one of India’s oldest plays.   

Clown Mindy portrays Shakuntala, defying the stereotypes attached to it, making her own decisions about her life unlike how its written in the original play. Clown Kamla and Clown Tinu try their best to fit into the roles of sage Kanav,  Dushyant, Priyamvada, Indra, Messengers and Bharat.   

Their Hindi script doesn’t get the censor clearance and now the clowns are pushed to perform the whole play with the original Sanskrit script. Will the goof-ups with the ring, Shakuntala’s pregnancy, Dyushant’s memory loss and language barriers add confusion to the clowns’ already chaotic lives or will it give the audience a different perspective on these archetype characters?  

Shakuntalam - Agar Pura Kar Paye Toh is a perfect family entertainer. It has completed more than 100 shows in a year touring extensively in Maharashtra, as well as in Delhi, Lucknow, Jaipur, Ranthambhore. The play was invited to participate in various theatre festivals such as JAIRANGAM, SUNDAY TO SUNDAY, SHADIPUR, LFI. It is scheduled to perform in many festivals in 2020. Shakuntalam has got selected for JUNOON Arts at Play to tour in India.
