Andha Yug (The Age of Darkness)


SETU’s 20th anniversary celebration with an English play (translation) about the carnage and destruction of the dynastic war of the Indian epic Mahabharata on its final day.

  • Playwright: Dharamvir Bharati

  • Casting & Direction: Subrata Das

A strong double cast will bring the powerful dynastic characters to life, along with dancers, narrators and chorists, in 2:30 hours including an intermission. An ALL-FEMALE cast, Naaree, as in this poster, portrays fifteen Pandava and Kaurava males and their allies with Gandhari being played by the only male actor. This, however, is "flipped" in the second regular cast, Purush, in which the sole male character is portrayed by a female actor.
