Zee Theatre's plays center around stories that break taboos, question gender stereotypes, celebrate diversity, explore the past, imagine the future and examine the present with insight, honesty and compassion. This campaign ‘Makes You Feel. Makes you Think’ is hence, aptly representative of the brand’s promise and purpose.
