Russia. The other set are the more privileged ‘Russians’.

these two plays want to do the best for their children—but how different these
two ‘bests’ are! Come and find out.
Synopses:
Tevye
Wins a Fortune (adaptation from a short story by Sholem Aleichem, Dramatised by Ravi Raj Sagar)
Sholom Aleichem’s short stories are full of gentle
humor. They are about the lives of the Jews who lived in a little village
in Czarist Russia—their joys, their disappointments, their troubles, their
relationships. ‘Tevye Wins a Fortune’ is a dramatized version of a story with
the same name. This is the same Tevye who was made famous by his inclusion in
the musical ‘Fiddler on the Roof’. Come and enjoy a few days of the life he
leads in the 40 minutes of this play.
The
Arrangement (A short story of Anton Chekhov, dramatized by Neil Simon)
It is a sweet, poignant story about the relationship between a
‘cool’ father and his young son. The father thinks that that it is time for his
son needs to know about the ways of love. He decides to introduce his reluctant
son to a very beautiful lady. How do you think his well-laid plans will work?
Let’s find out.
