‘361’, returns to New Town hall
View(s):Udyaysiri Wickremaratne’s latest stage play ‘361’ will go on the boards at 3.30 pm and 6.45 pm on October 6 at the New Townhall auditorium, Colombo.
‘361’ discusses the issue how mass media, which is supposedly dedicated to bringing the truth to the people contributes in concealing and distancing the truth from the people in a society which also overestimates the power of the media. ‘361’ deals with the naivety and shallowness of the people who sit in a chair in their living room and believe they can change the course of politics through engaging with what appears on a TV screen.
The cast of ‘361’ includes Jayalath Manoratne, Umayangana Wickremasinghe, Ruwan Malith Peiris, Chamari Nisansala, Mihiri Priyangani, Rohitha Jayakody, Kusal Maduranga, Ishara Wickremasinghe, and Nayanthara de Silva.
Behind the screen music is directed by Lalith de Silva, set designing is by Llewellyn Vanderwaal, costume designing is by Nipuni Preksha Mendis and lighting is by Mihindu Madhushanka.
Stage management by Ruwan Malith Peiris, the play is presented by Jude Srimal and the tickets are available at the Lionel Wendt Theatre, Colombo.
