'Desire Under the Elms' is a unique creation by Eugene O'Neill. Though the play was written a hundred years ago, the story still looks unfaded. The play is an amalgamation of love, violence, sexuality, longing, cleverness, conflict and death.

The play is produced by renowned theatre activist Syed Dulal. Cast of the play features Bulbul Ahmed Joy, Md Anwar Hossain Shameem, Nabila Nasrin, Shahidul Islam Shishir, Yeacher Arafat, Md.
