Speaking about the play, Mondol said, "The courage to stage this came from the children themselves. Their enthusiasm and sense of responsibility inspired me. We aimed to send a message to society — that bonds between people are what move the chariot of civilisation forward."
As per its press release, Bibarton believes theatre is more than entertainment — it is a powerful tool for social change. The group continues to address inequality, injustice, and social issues through drama, while also using it as a means to nurture children's mental growth, human values, and social awareness.
The cast of child performers included Adri, Nowshin, Aretina, Jhil, Swapnil, Swopno, Wasi, Roddur, Protyush, Born, Mugdho, Tajkir, Sayan, Nabya, Ajoar, and Shreyan.
