Marking the 44th death anniversary of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and observing the National Mourning Day 2019, special shows of the much-acclaimed play titled ‘Mujib Mane Mukti’ will be staged at the different venues across the country starting from Wednesday.
The month-long programme will feature a total of 20 shows at different venues in Dhaka, Gopalganj, Moulvibazar, Jhenaidah, Gazipur and Brahmanbaria.
Planned, scripted and directed by director general of Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy (BSA) Liaquat Ali Lucky, the production portrays the simple childhood of Bangabandhu with background music. As the story progresses, Bangabandhu is seen growing up through different events. Rooted in history, the story of the play depicts the versatile life of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. From his boyhood to his tragic death, the play unfolds the major episodes of his life.
The play also brings out a few incidents relating to national importance, including the Language Movement, Agartala Conspiracy Case, Bangabandhu’s historic speech of March 7 and finally, the Liberation War. The play also narrates the emergence of Bangladesh as a free nation.
A total of 50 artistes of the BSA troupe take part in the play.
