India’s education hub Pacific World School, located in Greater Noida West, brought out two expressionist plays, first a social drama named ‘Haqeeqat’ and second a visually pleasing and entertaining musical play called ‘Dreamcatcher’, in its annual function on 16th and 17th December.
Classes V –XI students participated in the dance drama ‘Haqeeqat’. It was a satirical representation of society’s hypocrisy shown through fine art and the neat performance of young actors. The issues which were highlighted in the play had references from modern contemporary life, which everybody would find relatable. The social themes used in the play were:- ‘Poverty’, ‘Gender Parity’, ‘Social Media’ and ‘Education System’. ‘Haqeeqat’ turned out to be an impactful pantomime with the participation of energetic dancers and budding actors.
