The Script, January 2015 - Edition 1

Hello Theatre Lovers,

Its been two whole month since 'The Script' been seen in your inbox and we sincerely apologize for that. We have been dealing with technical issues with our software and yours truly has been away. But, We are Back!!! 

A lot of good theatre happened during our hiatus and many of those shows return this month. Must see plays include Ace Theatre's 'Jesus Christ Superstar', Akvarious' 'The Government Inspector', Motley's 'Einstein' and Rangbaaz's 'Pitras Ka Raas'. There are premiers as well - Manhar Gadhia's 'Gardish Main Taare' and Theatre Unit's 'The Doll'. Even some our favourites are returning - Raanbaaz's 'Bawla', Akvarious' 'Tuesdays With Morrie', Masque's 'Bombay Talkies' and Aranya's 'Colour Blind'. Better buy your tickets early to avoid any disappointments!!!

On the QTP side, we are slowly recovering from a huge Thespo 16!! Colombo came and stole the show, some breathtaking music and some outstanding platforms and fringe performances made it one to remember. But we cant lie on our back for too long. Our play A Peasant of El Salvador  travels to Ahmedabad!! And our Great Text returns as well on the 26th of January - its a holiday, so no excuse for missing it!! Thespo at Prithvi also returns with our international collaboration 'Falls 2-11' will be playing in January and then tour Pune.
