Team Zulfiqar in association with the British Council presents 'Shakespeare Lives in Zulfiqar', supported by South City International School and the Bengal Quiz Foundation.
Schools and colleges are invited to take part in the Shakespeare Lives Quiz.
Following the quiz is a Dramatised Reading from William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar and Antony and Cleopatra by renowned actors.
The quiz competition is open to students between 15 to 18 years and themed on Shakespeare Lives which is a part of British Council’s global commemoration on the bard’s 400th death anniversary.

Zulfikar is inspired by Julius Caesar and Antony and Cleopatra and is all set to hit the screens in October.
The competition will be followed by a play reading by the cast members of Zulfiqar at the same venue which ends with the prize distribution.
