LAHORE:
A theatre adaptation of the famous Agatha Christie novel ‘And Then There Were None’ was performed by students of the Beaconhouse National University (BNU) and it kept the audience on the edge of their seats on Wednesday.
The play was organised by BeaDS Dramatic Society under the BNU Department of Theatre, Film and TV (TFT), School of Media and Mass Communication (SMC). The play revolves around 10 strangers who were invited by a mysterious host to an island where they started getting killed one by one.
Youth theatre festival continues to enthral audience
The play itself is based around 10 highly influential people of a city. These individuals are gathered for a dinner party by a mystery host on an island, but things do not end well for them. Each of them is accused of committing murders in the past, but were never questioned as their influence helped them escape the law.
Things take a turn for the worse when the guests start getting bumped off one by one. The play went on for an hour-and-a-half and managed to keep the audience spellbound with enough moments to draw reactions from the crowd.
The cast and crew of 14 managed to give a performance which had people on the edge of their seats by the end.
The cast included Jahan Ara Chughtai, Hafsah Haq, Waqar Ali, Saad Ayub, Mahnoor Lashari, Zain Irfan, Sadia Mohsin and Hassan Raza among others.
