"Following the much praised production of In the Red and Brown Water, this OWT paired production shares the theme of a woman yearning for a child and searching for a self-identity. The play has tremendous resonance in Nepal where a woman is often defined by her role as a wife and mother, and a childless woman can be devalued and replaced by a second wife.

Today we celebrate International Day of Volunteer.  It should be a big deal for many of us as the role of volunteers not only in Nepal but also all over the world should be always recognized and appreciated. Yet who is a volunteer? How can we define a person as a volunteer?

Part time, full time, formal, informal, religious, and traditional or even political activism?

There are so many ways to look at volunteerism.

प्रेम सदावहार विषय हो। त्यसैले पनि प्रेमको बारेमा कुरा गर्न हामी अलि बढी नैै लालायित हुन्छौँ। हरेक जोडीको प्रेमभावका पछाडि यौन लुकेकै हुन्छ। यौन बारेको सार्वजनिक छलफल भने हाम्रो समाजमा अपाच्य छ।

Both public, community managed schools and private schools are part of the same public education system.
