the mass audience of thousands in open air was equally effective in the intimate studio. Today's play was based on the story of a young girl 'Guddi' representing a major section of rural lower middle class adolescent young girls, who are forced into matrimony at a very tender age. Guddi is fully aware of the strains of early marriage, as it has taken its toll in untimely death of her mother. She wants to grow and get educated before she takes up the responsibility of married life. Her dreams are shattered, a 'suitable' groom is found and marriage date is fixed.
While the marriage ceremonies are being performed, help comes in the form of intervention by legal authorities and decision of marriage is deferred for appropriate time.

Suresh Kumar played the role of 'Baap' whereas Sakshi Parkash played the role of 'Guddi' with full theatrical versatility. The narrators of the play Anil Tikoo and Sanjeev Gupta did multiple roles thus demonstrating their hold over acting. Pawan Verma as clownish groom generated repeated laughter through his comic acts. Rahul Singh as 'Police Man' was also very impressive. Others who performed as chorus and various characters in this highly innovative play include Dimple Sharma, Tajasvi Sharma, Shivika Verma, Atin Tikka, Rohitashiv Sharma, Vinay Manhas, and Sachin Saini. Neeraj Kant executed the Lights. Sumeet Sharma coordinated the show and also did the presentations. |
