Hyderabad: Written by Ronald Harwood and directed by Atul Kumar, ‘Taking Sides’ – a play by Mumbai’s The Company Theatre – will be staged on November 5 and 6 at 7.30 pm at Rangbhoomi Spaces.
The play is set in post-World War II Germany, during the period of ‘denazification’. While on the surface the play is about the investigation of a world-famous music conductor of that time – Wilhelm Furtwangler – it takes on larger discussions and motifs spanning music, art, culture, life, politics, morality, ethics, and more.
