About a week ago I posted a couple of pictures including this picture of Caitriona in Nepal
I found the picture via a story on the IG of Willem Dafoe, a repost of the original poster Anup Khadka.
As I thought to recognize Caitriona, but since the picture was a bit grainy, and she didn't look into the camera on this one, I was fairly sure it was Caitriona though, but I looked for confirmation. Asked some friends, some were positive it was her, others not entirely sure. So I held off posting it, and decided to contact Anup Khadka about it. I was also curious, where this picture was taken, as it didn't look like a film set but more like a theater. Unfortunately Anup didn't answer me right away, I waited a day or so.
Since I had no answer I posted it like it was, just the picture and no further information. Meanwhile Anup saw my message and contacted me and we had a nice chat, exchanging some information.
He confirmed it was Caitriona and told me she was visiting a play at the Mandela Theater in Thapagaun together with Willem Dafoe. They were watching the play Urf Darasing.
Based on oral history, Urfa Darasingh follows the story of a man named Darasingh — a fictional character shaped by the socio-political turbulence of the Panchayat regime. The play delves into thought-provoking questions such as: How did he become Darasingh? What forces molded him into who he became?
Through powerful performances and evocative storytelling, the drama critiques systemic corruption and the decay of leadership, arguing that while systems may not be inherently flawed, failed leaders continue to produce “Darasinghs” even today. The play acts as a mirror to ongoing societal issues, resonating strongly with contemporary audiences.
The play is written by Suman Lingden, produced by Suman Rai, with Manorath Pokhrel as co-producer and Rupesh Lama as associate director.
After watching the play Willem Dafoe and Caitriona took some pictures with the cast. With the information graciously shared with me by Anup, I was able to find some more and better pics from the event.
