Alliance Française de Dhaka (AFD) wrapped up its two-day staging of 'Songs of Hawkers', an imaginative theatrical production by French director Zazie Hayoun, with a performance on Saturday at the Experimental Theatre Hall of Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy (BSA) in the capital.
Drawing from her long-held fascination with everyday life, Zazie transformed the spirited and chaotic world of Bangladeshi street hawkers into a playful, poetic and comedic stage performance. The production paid tribute to these tireless figures whose rhythmic calls, colourful wares and boundless energy form an integral part of the city’s streets.
