Harishchandra's Court
Product details
Myth, history and the present times are fused in Pravin Pandya’s play ‘Harishchandra’s Court’ to foreground the signs of the times. The play is a response to the far-reaching and traumatic consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic and portrays a bubble inhabited by characters from mythology, history, the realm of the surreal and contemporary times to present unsettling situations The protagonist’s gumption to uphold the truth against all odds is the leitmotif which problematises the concept of the post-truth. The play is a quest for the fast vanishing spirit of truth and humanity world over. Hoping that the play has resonance with the readers.
