As the curtain lifts you are welcomed by a blithely genuine set design. The living room where the entire play unravels is spacious, realistic, with a higher set landing, tasteful purple walls and five creative stage exits (two of them actually have stairs and you can see the actors disappearing down to some Narnia).

"Two Muskatears", an original play produced by 'Artainment Productions' and directed by Umar Sultan opened at the Arts Council in Karachi on October 8,2012 and will be running till October 28,2012.

Cast Members include Saqib Sameer, Fizza Zehra, Sidra Sadiq, Arshad Malik, Kamal Hussain and Younas Khan.
