I made this video from a performance at the Town Hall,
Avissawella, Sri Lanka. The performance was by the children of Sumedha
Vidyalaya, Kosgama. The title of the play was 'Magic Pinsala' -- 'The Magic
Brush'. It tells the story of a child
having a magic brush which brings to life everything that she paints with it. A
feudal Lord forces her to paint a mountain of gems. The child paints an island with a mountain of
gems. On request she paints a boat for the Lord to cross across the waters to
reach the island of gems. While the Lord and his retinue are in the boat, the
child paints a severe tempest. The cruel Lord and his accomplices drown when
the boat buffeted by the storm, breaks up.
I filmed this from the front row with no floodlights. The camera was a Nikon
D90 in video mode.
