Almast Media: Heer Waris Shah – The Awakening of Love
Almast Media presents Heer Waris Shah – The Awakening of Love, a live stage production premiering at the South Asian-American Theater Festival (SAAThFest) 2025.
This is the first in a three part series depicting Waris Shah’s epic Heer, which tells the tragic tale of the romance between Heer and Ranjha. If Heer and Ranjha are the Romeo and Juliet of Punjab, it would also be appropriate to compare Waris Shah with Shakespeare for his innovative use of language.
Written and directed by acclaimed author Sarbpreet Singh, Heer Waris Shah – The Awakening of Love is a bilingual musical production designed to introduce this timeless tale to a new generation.
