The Script, Edition 9 - September 2013

You'd think that the Ganpati drums would dissuade theatre companies from staging their productions, but if anything it seems to have intensified.

Plenty of plays return after relatively long hiatius'. Utkarsh Mazumdar's Jagine Joun To Narsaniyo, Balancing Act's docu-drama '26/11 - A Personal War', and Manhar Ghadia's Saat Teri Ekvees all return. And then there are the plays that keep on going. Vagina Monologues, Pune Highway and Broken Images! For some reason children's plays also make a strong appearance in the calendar - Joy Fernandes' 'Clowns @ Play' and Ansh Theatre's 'Timeboy'. Also the Park New Theatre festival comes to town.

On the QTP Front, we are delighted to announce that the opening run of our new production A Peasant of El Salvador which premiered at Prithvi on the 1st of September. Thank you for all those who came!! We now moves to South Bombay with shows at Avenue 29 on the 8th of September and The Nehru Centre on the 28th of September. Please spread the word!!!
