It requires a lot of dedication and rehearsal. The children who acted in our play were freshers and they were speculative of doing full-length plays.""So we did 12 small plays of 15 minutes duration over the last three days. The children who acted in the plays did an exceptional performance. I could see their confidence boosted after the successful conduct of the play. Now they are eager to do a full-length play," Khan said.Tariq Ahmad Shera, a frequent visitor to theatres said, "We are excited at the news of the resumption of theatres. Theatre is an important part of Kashmiri culture and tradition and it helps to reduce the mental stress of people in times of corona crisis".Hilal Khan a Performing Artist said," I pray that Covid may end so that theatre can be in full flex just as it was before the pandemic""A new energy has come in after the plays have resumed. The children learn from theatre about the culture and community.
