Half-Chicken

The play “Half-Chicken” is about a chicken hatched with only half a body, one leg, one wing, one eye, and only half as many feathers as the other chicks. She becomes the centre of attention at the ranch where she is born, because the animals consider her very special and unique. With her uniqueness, she is propagated as half chicken Baba. Half-Chicken Baba becomes vain because of this attention and decides to leave the ranch to visit the king Sri Krishnadevaraya. On her journey she meets people who are in need of help but she does not help them. What happens to Half-Chicken as a result of this is what we will know from this delightful short play.

Pinocchio- The robot

This play is devised from a play Pinocchio 3.5 which was written by Eric Cobel. Gill Bates is a computer magnate. He has a Software Company, billions of dollars, power but something is missing from his life: children. So he builds a little robot named Pinocchio. The present play is about Pinocchio who gets diverted easily from others.
