SALOME
Yatrik's enactment of Oscar Wilde's 'Salome' captured the wistful, dreamy quality of Wilde's text and his insistent aestheticism. The programme was to mark Wilde's 140th and Yatrik's own 30th anniversaries in 1994. The play was directed by Kusum Haidar.

RASHOMON
Rashomon, the Japanese play, was directed by Kusum Haidar in Bhutan in November 1981, to celebrate the birthday of His Majesty, The King of Bhutan.
SYLVIA PLATH
 
Sylvia Plath was directed by Joy Michael of Yatrik in1985. Kusum played the role of Sylvia.
9 JAKHOO HILL
 
9 Jakhoo Hill, a play by Yatrik, moves adeptly from the body politic to the individual heart. The public world impinges on the private, with betrayals, pain and brave adaptations. Flavoured with Chekovian overtones, it was deceptively fluid and haunting. Kusum played the role of Amrita.
