The Dowry Hunter - A (Re)View

My mother occasionally speaks about her past with nostalgia which includes the plays that she had enjoyed during her time and one of them being 'The Dowry Hunter', so needless to say when I saw the advertisement in the newspapers about this vintage production we were eager to see it.

Souvenir of Dowry Hunter

As seen in the front cover of the souvenir, this has been a vintage drama that has been written by one named S.J.K Crowther seventy years ago, which has been reproduced by two prominent dramatists in Sri Lanka, Indu Dharmasena and Jith Peiris

Inside the Souvenir of Dowry Hunter

The plot is about a man's struggle to manage his acquaintances who seems to flock around him after he won a lottery with the aid of his friend. 
This was the first time I witnessed a stage play with two intervals. The play as a whole was good, the actors did an excellent job, the humour was also fine but I personally preferred He Comes from Jaffna (another vintage reproduction which I witnessed some time ago).
The Music score and the stage setting resembled of an olden era that was nice and unique, and finally it was inspiring to see such vintage reproductions as it displays the nostalgic experiences that our mothers would always admire.
