Daijiworld Media Network - Mangaluru (SB)
Mangaluru, Jul 6: After the success of shows in the district and on public demand, Capuchin Friars in the city will once again present 'Voparinchi Saanz', a portrayal of the Biblical parables on Sunday July 15 at Town Hall here at 6 pm.
The event titled 'An Evening of Parables' , portrays the Biblical parables 'The Prodigal Son', 'Foolish and Wise Virgins', 'Lost Sheep', 'Three Servants given Talents' and 'Four Types of Soil’.
The show is written and directed by Fr Melwyn Paul D'Souza and choreographed by Suresh Attavar. The students of Nazareth School and well known artistes of Mangaluru are acting in the musical drama.
Previous show at Don Bosco Hall
Speaking to Daijiworld, Fr Melwyn said, "I've transformed a few parables from the Bible into musical form. It is a modern way of explaining the meaning of parables mentioned in the Bible. Art lovers and the audience have accepted the concept and their positive response confirms that they enjoyed the earlier shows,”
“We played the first show at Don Bosco hall and witnessed a huge crowd. We later staged another show at Madanthyar and subsequently received several offers for the show. So on public demand we will now perform at Town Hall, Mangaluru." Fr Melwyn informed.
Entry is free.
