Germantown, MD, Oct 15, 2010 (Washington Bangla Radio) Natya Bharati, the acclaimed theater troupe from the Washington DC Metro Area, will stage the play RON on  Oct 30, 2010 at the JCC in Rockville, MD.

Back by popular demand, this will be the last show for RON in the DC area.

RON is a play by Sudipta Bhawmik and set in the backdrop of the current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The play, RON explores issues of loyalty and patriotism in the context of an Indian immigrant family settled in the United States, where the only son decides to join the US army and gets deployed to Iraq. The larger issues of war are juxtaposed against the wars that each one of us continue to fight for our physical and emotional survival. The wars we fight are not always just and fair but we still fight them anyway.

The play also poignantly portrays the challenges a family faces when a loved-one is fighting a war, especially a war that they may or may not believe in.
