It is that time of the year when "pujor ar kodin baki'? is the only question that looms large. Not this year though - and it makes us sad that we will not be able to celebrate Durga puja with the usual festivities. However, this year, we will celebrate Pujo in a different way. As part of our Pujo celebration, we will be raising funds for those who have suddenly lost their livelihoods and sole source of sustenance due to this pandemic - the light technician whose design created magic on-stage – or the make-up artist whose deft hand helped the actor discover her character. Their livelihood is at stake, and "pujor notun jama-kapor" is of course highly unlikely for them or their family. Therefore, we will be raising funds to bring some Pujo festivity to those theater friends. Ebong Theatrix has extended a helping hand to our theater friends from the very beginning of this lockdown. Using funds from our own reserves and donations from our generous members and well-wishers, we have tried to help in our own small way.  For our Pujo fund raiser “Pujor Tane Natok”, a galaxy of theater personalities have come forward to help us. Working with them, we have put together a unique theatrical event on September 26 and 27 to raise funds for theater workers. Participants in this event include:

Soumitra Chatterjee, Arun Mukhopadhyay, Rudraprasad and Swatilekha Sengupta, Meghnad Bhattacharya,  Debshankar Haldar, Suman Mukhopadhyay, Kaushik Sen, Debesh Chattopadhyay, Bimal Chakraborty,  Biplab Bandyopadhyay, Sohini Sengupta, Seema Mukherjee, Sujon Mukhopadhyay, Shubhashis Mukherjee, Poulomi Bose,  Riddhi Sen, Ishita Mukherjee, Reshmi Sen, and Asish Goswami.
