BHOPAL: A play ‘Camp’ raising pointed questions over the boundaries drawn by nations on the mother earth, stirred the audiences. The play depicted the plight of the homeless during partition.
The artistes, staging the play at Gandhi Bhavan on Monday, asked “When the earth is one, why do we draw boundaries on it?” Scripted by Rameshwar Prem and directed by Anand Mishra, the play also asked - Why don't people have the right to live where they want to?
