Special virtual play Abasada will be live on FB tonight at 8 PM

Bhubaneswar: A virtual play will be enacted by an all-women group comprising eminent personalities from different walks of life. The play ‘Abasada’ revolves around the issues people are facing these days in the aftermath of COVID-19 pandemic. Chiefly, it deals with mental health issues, including suicide and depression.

The play by Nari Adwitiya has been conceived, scripted and directed by Sujata Priyadarshini.  The initiative has been supported by Parichay FFoundation.

This virtual play will be live on Facebook from 8 PM tonight and can also be viewed on Zoom.

“Some amount of depression is inevitable in this atmosphere of fear and forced isolation. This play is showcased by women hailing from different backgrounds, living in one apartment and shows how small things can help us avoid depression,” expressed a member of the group.

Through the play, the actors intend to send across a message as to how small matters can help avoid depression, which is inherent in this current atmosphere of fear and forced isolation.
