Three years after his acclaimed play Apahu Herenna Be (No Return) award-winning playwright Rajitha Dissanayake, returns to stage with Bakamuna Weedi Basiy (Owl on the Street). As in his previous plays such as Weeraya Merila, and Apahu Herenna Be, Dissanayake deals with contemporary socio-political realities.

Written and directed by Rajitha Dissanayake, the play includes a group of versatile actors such as Shyam Fernado, Jayani Senanayake, Priyankara Rathnayake, Dharamapriya Dias, Prasad Suriyaaracchi, Sampath Jayaweera, Nalin Lusena, Samitha Sudheeshwara and others. Kapila Pugalaaracchi composes music. Ranga Samarakoon and Priyankara Rathnayake design lights to illuminate a set designed by Dharmapriya Dias; makeup by Priyantha Dissanayaka, and costumes by Gihan Fernando; Award-winning Malith Peiris manages the stage. OWL is a production of Freedom Theater Group. 

The OWL can be seen on 4^th, 5^th and 6^th of August at Lionel Wendt Theater. Box plan will be open at Lionel Wendt from 25^th July.
