YUPHORIA 2023 - exrays

With the rules read out, the Blue’s play began. In Scene One, the spotlight fell on 'Steve,' a teenager grappling with the weight of peer pressure. His unreasonable desire for a new phone to fit in with his classmates clashed with his family's financial constraints. Despite his mother’s clear statement that they were in no financial condition to support his whims, his rebellious nature continued and pushed him further down a misguided path.

Scene Two brought forth the story of Ethan, a character marked by his selfish ambitions to study abroad. Light-hearted humor was skillfully woven into the narrative through Ethan's brother's hilarious insistence on joining him, ending in an amusing exclamation by his parents that no, the Eiffel Tower was not in New York, London or New Delhi but in Paris. However, beneath the humor, on a more somber note, the play also shed light on the sacrifices parents make, their struggles with financial burdens, and the insensitivity of children to their aging parents' needs.

The spotlight then shifted to Scene Three, delving into the life of Jenny, a young girl torn between her passion for dancing and her parents' relentless focus on academic pursuits. The audience witnessed Jenny's frustration and the fracturing of her ambitions.

The performance skillfully conveyed the profound message that every choice we make shapes our existence, impacting the very fabric of our lives. In the end, this fantastic yet sobering topic proved to be an immersive and transformative experience. Then comes, The gold’s house play- 2 nations 1 mother was a powerful play with a happy and powerful ending. It taught us the power of mother’s love and the extents a mother is willing to go just to protect her children. The facts and stats were taken from real cases like the ongoing Ariha case where the mother is still fighting to get back the custody of the children and also against the allegations against her given by the German government and the real life incident of Sagarika Charkravarti which inspired the movie Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway. It showed the injustice happening to migrant families due to cultural differences, causing the children to be separated from their parents and being shifted to foster care. The story revolves around Falguni Desai(played by Prashasthi Vashista) who is a Gujarati women who has migrated from India to Norway and settled in Norway with her husband (Mr Desai played by Samarth) and 2 children (Adi played by Vaatsal and Anu) .Life seemed contented till an unfortunate turn of events shattered the peace she had build . The courtroom became the battle ground for justice where her lawyers (Aron Kalson Kapoor played by Mridul Jhangid and Mrs Chauhan played by Garvita Mishra ) pleaded her case . While lawyers from Velfred pleaded against her (Florence played by Gaurangi Mishra and Aron kalsen Kapoor ) .The case seemed to have been pleaded from to different countries and court room all together and both gave different verdicts altogether while the Norwegian court gave the custody to Mr Desai’s brother Anurag Desai (played by Pranav Manglani) the Indian court gave the custody back to Mrs Falguni Desai thus concluding the play .The script had been written by Snehal Agarwal,Meghaangee Chakrabarti , Bhawisha and Pranav Manglani. After an amazing performance by the golds house, then comes the greens house. In the quaint town .. the idyllic lives of Jack and Hazell appeared to be picture-perfect.

One fateful afternoon, Madison stood at the door of Hazell’s home, her heart pounding with trepidation. With teary eyes, she disclosed the truth that had been buried beneath layers of deceit. Hazell, who had just known this from his son was once again shattered by the revelation, felt her world collapsing around her. Emotions swirled inside her, a potent mix of anger, hurt, and confusion. The truth was now laid bare, and Hazell knew she had to make a difficult decision for herself and her children.

Resolute in her pursuit of happiness and determined to protect her children from further pain, Hazell chose to leave Jack. As Hazell embarked on her journey towards independence, she faced numerous challenges and emotional upheavals. The path to healing was rocky, but she discovered an inner strength she never knew she had.

It serves as a reminder that even the strongest bonds can be tested, but the path to healing begins with acknowledging one’s mistakes and finding the strength to start anew. Hazell’s journey towards independence and self-discovery inspires us to hold onto our values and stand tall in the face of adversity, proving that loyalty to oneself and the truth can lead to a brighter, more fulfilling future.
