Pune’s WOPA Winter Festival Presents the Spectacular Satirical Musical – ‘The Greatest Show on Earth’

Pune, 25th February 2025: The World of Performing Arts (WOPA) Winter Festival is set to conclude its season with an electrifying finale – Water Lily’s ‘The Greatest Show on Earth’, a darkly comic, razor-sharp musical satire written and directed by Vikram Kapadia. This bold and entertaining production will be staged on Sunday, 2nd March 2025, at the Creaticity Amphitheatre, Pune.
What Makes ‘The Greatest Show on Earth’ Unmissable?
A satirical spectacle, this production delivers a scathing, witty, and musically charged critique of modern-day politics, social disparity, and media influence. Combining sharp humor with thought-provoking themes, it holds a mirror to contemporary society while keeping audiences engaged with its high-energy performances.
With live music, striking choreography, and immersive storytelling, ‘The Greatest Show on Earth’ blends irony, melody, and spectacle into a theatrical experience unlike any other.
Directed by Vikram Kapadia, a seasoned theatre-maker known for his layered narratives and incisive storytelling, this production is a testament to his ability to craft performances that are both entertaining and socially relevant.
Following the success of Danish Hussain’s ‘Main Pal Do Pal Ka Shayar Hoon’, Girish Karnad’s ‘Hayavadana’, and Atul Kumar’s ‘Baaghi Albele’, WOPA’s Winter Festival concludes its season with one of its most ambitious productions yet.
“The overwhelming response to WOPA’s Winter Festival reaffirms Pune’s passion for live theatre. ‘The Greatest Show on Earth’ is a testament to our commitment to staging bold, innovative performances that entertain while provoking thought.
