Watch Out Cine & TV Star SALEEM SHAH in Pierrot’s Troupe’s  Solo Play “1947” (Satire).

The play takes a fresh, non academic, non political look at the partition tragedy that took place along with the country’s independence.

The story unfolds in the form of an 85 year old man and an Alzheimer’s patient -- Ghazanfar Hussein --  living in a small town in UP, recalling the partition and its immediate as well as long-term aftermath in juxtaposition to the death of his wife a couple of days ago.        

In the process, the old man’s non-academic non-descript personal memoirs of the partition question a range of stereotypes about it   – its genesis, its causes, its effects – leading, finally, to exploring the unexplored facets of the tragedy.

Some of the other plays from Pierrot’s Troupe stable are Ghalib in New Delhi, Cut…Cut…Cut, K. L. Saigal, Shareek-e-Ghalib,  Tumko Chahoon…, Maulana Azad, Big B, Begum Akhtar, A Private Affair, Massage etc.
