Dr Farooq Beg and Irum Rehman played the roles of father and mother of Sheroo, who are trying to understand why this tragedy befell their child, and were they amiss in not reading the warning signs in their child’s behaviour? Wali Ahmed is convincing as the gawky nineteen year old rebelling against his real and imagined societal norms and constraints, but the best performance came from Fakhar Zaman, who elicited revulsion as the Faustian drug dealer preying on the confused and alienated kids of the elite.

The purpose of staging the play is to raise consciousness about the spread of drug abuse in our society. It is going to be translated into Urdu and staged in different schools all over the country. Mrs. Cristina von Sperling, Chairperson KKAWF and Amb Tariq Khan Afridi have successfully turned their personal tragedy into a cause and a movement for combating the menace of drugs in our society. It was a Serendip production, with Farooq Beg as the Director, and Huma Beg as the Art Director and Producer.
