Year-Long Drama Festival
Mirror Theater responded to the mental distress caused by the Covid-19 pandemic by launching a year-long drama campaign aimed at providing entertainment and alleviating people's fears. From September 2021 to August 2022, they staged a play each month, offering a source of solace and diversion. In September 2021, they adopted a unique approach, featuring one character in the first month and two characters in the second month. Notably, the program's success stemmed from the active participation of individuals from diverse backgrounds, including children, senior citizens, housewives, and teachers affiliated with Belpahar's community theater. Their involvement in various dramas facilitated a sense of inclusivity and community support, offering a respite from the challenges of the pandemic and prioritizing mental well-being.
