And Then (Und dann by Wolfram Höll) | Kirtana Kumar - Saturday 26th @ 18.30
Presenting German Spotlight this weekend, a series of rehearsed readings, to help publicise and popularise our vast online databank of German plays in translation.
About Kirtana Kumar: Kirtana Kumar is an actor, director and film-maker. She lives on a farm with a musician, 4 dogs, 3 horses, some buffalo and chickens.
"I picked And then because it was written in columns, with no defined characters and with line breaks that hinted at a rhythm that the playwright was keen we discover in the reading. I found it elusive and suggestive of lost love, lost people. I also liked the fact that it was set against 1989, the toppling of the Berlin Wall. This offered a contemporary historical context that, for me, is very interesting to explore."
What I'm doing with it: Playing with chorus as memory, some found footage. Trying to get beneath the skin of the text.

The Pillowman | Martin McDonagh - Tuesday 22nd to Saturday 26th @ 20.00
Set in an imaginary totalitarian police-state, "The Pillowman" is a comedy so dark that the color black seems pale. Twisted, mysterious and outright funny in generous proportions, this play is bound to leave the audiences spellbound with its plot and imagery.

Inaugural

at The National Gallery of Modern Art , Bangalore
The artist K. Venkatappa (1886- 1965) , student of Abanindranath Tagore and the first modern artist of the Mysore State, is a seminal figure of early modern Indian art who has been strangely neglected by dominant Indian art history. The seminar brings together scholars from India and abroad who will present fresh research to "re-look" at his art and times. By this we hope to make more complex the history of early modern art, and therefore, of early modernity in India.

Shukla Sawant, Chandan Gowda, Raghave
Mamta Sagar, Srajana Kaikini and Pushpamala N.

Rabbit Hole - From Friday 4th to Sunday 13th
What's the play about?
Becca and Howie have everything a couple could want, until a life-shattering accident turns their world upside down and leaves them drifting perilously apart. Rabbit Hole charts their bittersweet search for comfort in the darkest of places and for a path that will lead them back into the light of day. A play about mending a broken family which shifts perfectly from hilarity to grief without sentimentality ... entertaining and satisfying. Winner of the 2006 Tony Award and 2007 Pulitzer Prize, David Lindsay-Abaire has crafted a drama that's not just a departure but a revelation—an emotional and insightful examination of grief, laced with wit, compassion and searing honesty. |

Fate of a cockroach - Friday 30th & Saturday 1st @ 20.00 + Sunday 2nd @ 15.00 & 18.30
The Fate Of A Cockroach transports the audiences from a bathroom floor where cockroaches rule, to a hard-working, middle class couples morning ritual. When the husband relates to a cockroach's struggle, neither wife nor family doctor can liberate him from his pact. He proves to be the playwright's personified cockroach. In the cockroach kingdom, there are self appointed officials, so called 'gurus' of science and politics, who fail to come up with solutions to pressing problems. The king cockroach declares, ''In the whole of the cockroach kingdom, there is no cockroach that feeds another, everyone strives for their own daily bread.'' Sound familiar? Have we become like cockroaches?
The playwright draws parallels between the two worlds. In both the worlds the women seem to be stronger, even though they are of the 'weaker sex.'
A thought provoking play.
