BSL : Bangla as a Second Language
BSL is a hilarious short play (by Sudipta Bhawmik) for children (pre-teens, teens, young
adults) of Bengali origin. Neil, Nick, Jay and Seema live in USA. But
like all children of Bengali speaking parents, they are being forced to
learn Bengali (or Bangla) against their will. Neil, the most innovative
and smart kid he is, invents a device that can make one learn Bangla
(or any other language) in seconds. Nick agrees to be the first guinea
pig for the trials of this machine and the results are - quite
unexpected to say the least.
The script has been published earlier in India Doot Saradiya magazine. The script can also be obtained from
