Pakistani Students Association at the University of California, Berkeley is hosting an urdu language cultural event on May 3rd, 2008. The event called “Eik Dupair, Urdu Ki Sair” which in English means “An Afternoon Dedicated to Urdu” will have a variety of segments in Urdu that will include skits, plays, musical performances like Qawwali, speeches by Urdu literaries and students and other fun activities. From what I hear, they will have english translation to most of the segments so even if you don’t understand Urdu, you can still enjoy the show.

Here are the details:
