When Mullah Nasir-uddin and his (mostly) faithful donkey, Fidhu, overhear a scuffle between soccer teammates, they know that something must be done. Mullah and Fidhu decide to visit the feuding playmates in their dreams that night. The dreamers must band together with Mullah and Fidhu, as the adventure leads them on a wild course filled with many curious creatures. With his witty wisdom, Mullah teaches the dreamers that understanding can triumph over all their fears. Based on Mullah Nasir-uddin stories from the Turkish culture, where the wise fool is a mainstay in traditional folklore, this play also explores Pakistan culture and introduces Urdu language.
In addition to the free campus performances, this production tours on Fridays throughout the the spring 2019 semester.
