Held at the American Centre, the performance was a part of the 4th Annual Creative Arts Festival of Pagdandi, Swechha's non-formal learning programme for marginalized children. 60 children of 7-17 years were a part of the theatrical production that was presented in three slots. While the show on November 22 was exclusively performed for the community (Jagdamba Camp), the shows on November 23 were open to all.
The theatrical extravaganza was directed by Pawan Singh Dewan (Dramabaaz Co) and had elements of dance, drama and puppetry. The performance is a Hindi theatrical adaptation of 'The Lorax,' a popular children's story by Dr Seuss. Seuss was an American writer, poet and cartoonist who captured the imagination of children worldwide with his books. This popular children's story chronicles the plight of trees facing constant threat due to human greed and aspiration. The festival was supported by KHD, a global leader in cement plant technology, equipment, and services and had an audience of more than 500 people. In July 2013, Swechha collaborated with Dramabaaz Co, a group with expertise in drama, puppetry and story-telling, to build the capacities of the kids in theatre and puppetry.
The set of the show was entirely made out of trash by Swechha volunteers. The volunteers used waste material such as old records, CDs, plastic bottles, scrap newspapers etc to design the set. It initiated Pagdandi in 2009 as an alternative non-formal learning space for the children of Jagdamba Camp, a huge slum community in South Delhi. Every year, Swechha organizes an annual festival with the children of Pagdandi to celebrate their learning through creative means.
