Theater aficionados, keep your schedule free from August 3 to August 7. The National Centre for the Performing Arts (NCPA) is all set to host a fresh array of plays ranging from human folly to socio-political drama as part of the third edition of Pratibimb- Marathi Natya Utsav.

The five-day festival includes From Avishkar Production’s Chitragoshhti, which showcases interesting stories of family tensions and life in the metropolis, Rangmala’s Shivaji underground in Bheemnagar Mohalla, which highlights the relationship between history, human race and emblems, and Pune Municipal Kamgar Union’s ‘Satyashodhak’, which emphasises on casteism in our society. The festival promises an enriching and enlightening mix of experimental Marathi theatre for its patrons.u00a0Deepa Gahlot, Head- Programming (Theatre and Film) NCPA, comments, “All the plays are largely based on relevant societal themes, making a powerful collective statement. The festival is our initiative to revive Marathi theatre culture which is buzzing with activity right now.”
