In this adaptation of Bertolt Brecht's classic satire ""The Three Penny Opera"", Dr. Parimal Dutta keeps the essence of Brechtian theatre alive, in that he has written ""Do KaudiKa Khel"" as a traditional ""Nautanki"" which is a North Indian form of theatre having considerable similarities to Brecht's style. The Play, being a socialist critique of the capitalist system, lays bare the corruption, exploitation and violence in a highly individualistic society through a gut wrenching satirical tone. Quality of satire in the play is evident from the fact that it has a seemingly happy end, leaving the observant audience pondering over the existing order of things and the possibility of replacing it with a better system.
