" The Tale of Quaries, the Prince who Fails " will be staged by pirerrott's Troupe in April 2018 in new delhi and Bangalore. It is directed by Tom after assited by Dr. M Sayeed Alam. James Alter will play a lead role.
"A very witty and intelligent play….. the author already has the royality in her pocket…."
"A new genre in writing by Veena S Rao…. It's contemporary, it's Shakespeaream, it's witty, satirical and it's tragically comic. In the Bard's words, this would have been a tragedy of errors. Entertaining and sad, wait to see it on stage."
"An interesting take on a all still painful recent past involving Britain's Royal Family. Veena Rao uses her imagination cleverly to show that Shakespeare is still relevant when it comes to a good plot, even in the 21st centuary.
