Dhaka University Mime Action (DUMA), one of Bangladesh's most celebrated cultural organizations, is set to make history with its first-ever performance in Europe.
Ubaidullah Ridwan, President of DUMA, has been invited by the Embassy of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh in Warsaw to perform mime at the National Day Reception on March 26, 2026, commemorating Bangladesh’s Independence and National Day.
The event will take place at 18:00 hrs at the Ratuszowa Hall, Palace of Culture and Science, Warsaw. In its official invitation the embassy highlighted that distinguished performances like DUMA’s would strengthen artistic and people-to-people ties between Bangladesh and Poland.
This milestone underscores DUMA’s role in advancing mime as a medium of artistic expression in Bangladesh. Over the years, the troupe has staged performances addressing human rights, social justice, and awareness campaigns, earning recognition both domestically and internationally.
The performance will showcase the richness of Bangladeshi artistic heritage on the international stage and celebrate 55 years of Bangladesh’s nationhood, DUMA said in a statement.
Through this landmark cultural presentation, DUMA aims to carry the pride of Bangladesh’s independence and its cultural legacy to Europe, marking a notable achievement for Bangladeshi performing arts.
