Kanaichand Palowan - Play. Drama and direction: Raja Bhattacharya. Produced by Blank Verse.

To mark Childrens Day, Blank Verses latest play Kanaichand Palowan attempts to address this crisis of society in a humorous manner; delivering an important message and, at the same time, bringing smiles on the audiences faces.

Staged by children who play the role of adults and adults playing the role of children, the performance takes the form of traditional folk theatre, with a choric character narrating the sequence of events as they are enacted.

The story follows the life of Kanai, a teenager who loves to play football and does not pay attention to his studies. He is compelled to fulfil his parents ambition of being a social success, with fatal consequences. As his shocked parents realise their serious mistake, it becomes clear that they both had a nightmare. Kanai re-enters the stage and the drama ends on a happy note, but the disturbing questions raised by it are left very much alive.
