The artists of Spandana, a theatre troupe in Sagar, staged Kuvempu’s play Maharathri at DVS College in Shivamogga on Thursday.
The play narrates the night when Siddhartha leaves the palace to lead the life of an ascetic. Kuvempu, the playwright, calls it Maharathri, the epic night.
M.V. Prathibha, the founder of Spandana, has directed the play. So far, it has seen 27 shows in Shivamogga district and other places. As the play is part of the syllabus for degree students, the troupe has staged the play in many colleges.
