The Defenseless Creatures

Upstage Productions and Behroopiya Entertainers in association with Harfkaar Foundation Presents The Defenseless Creatures based on Short Stories by Anton Chekov.

The Bear- The Bear is a one-act comedy play by Anton Chekhov. The play was originally dedicated to Nikolai Nikolaevich Solovtsov, Chekhov's boyhood friend and director/actor who first played the character Khudabakhsh.

The Bear's comedy derives from the characters' lack of self-knowledge. The widow Afrin fancies herself inconsolably bereaved, while Khudabakhsh considers himself a misogynist. They are both stock examples of pretentious extravaganza: figures made ludicrous by pretending to be more than they actually are.

Bank manager

“Bank manager" by Anton Chekhov is exaggerated comedy meant to be humorous. It is the story of a man called Nirmal who works in a bank and one day attends a woman who comes with an issue for him to solve. But the problem that Nirmal faces is that the woman doesn't want to understand that he can't solve her issue.
