… Yup, there’s nothing like one.
Especially when you’ve spent the previous night at a Hindi Play. Wha-huh??
Yes I did. I was lured into Pritvi on Saturday night with the promise of seeing “The Vagina Monologues”
But then was called just a little while before the play to say that we were instead going to see “Hadh [...]
A Perfect Evening - Act One
The theatre. Definitive theatre would be Shakespeare, and so it was. I haven’t seen Macbeth, so it was that too. And it undoubtedly was excellent.
Alyque Padamsee has (brilliantly imo!) spun his version of Macbeth by making Lady Macbeth a Tantric who teams up with the witches to weave a [...]
(With Anish after his play on Saturday night. The blurry picture only slightly hides the fact I was looking highly chaprasi-like after a long bike ride!)
Granted, this supposed to be a review of Anish Trivedi’s play ‘Still Single’.
But before I talk about the play, I want to talk about the man.
My first memory of Anish [...]
It’s been a long week. Haven’t been blogging, but assure you I did think of blogging Hope you all have been great!
Started off the week, Sunday 2nd April, by going out with the ghost of Christmas past. Went to the most amazing place in the city to eat - seriously - if the intention [...]
Went for the St. Andrew’s Zonals at St. Andrew’s Auditorium. Watched the 4 zonal plays (liked the 1st one best, written & directed by Rosalind, starring Brian Tellis). The 4th play had great laughs too - in fact lots of people liked it best - I personally felt the 2nd, 3rd & 4th plays [...]
Started off with the usual 10am Mass (though Jan played this Sunday). Next Sunday starts Confirmation Classes - and Andy gave me the amazing news that I’m to be with him Can’t wait to start classes - am sooo buzzed about it.
Afterwards went to visit Grandma, who’s back from a long trip to [...]
Say the words “See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil” and one is likely to conjure up an image of three apes…
On Sunday, I had the dubious pleasure of watching apes (albeit of a human kind) doing similarly silly things at Paritossh Painter’s play (titled the same thing) which was playing at [...]
(Mandira Bedi & Samir Soni in “Anything But Love”![]()
Was dying to see Raell Padamsee’s “Anything But Love” since it opened & today was the day it finally happened.
Unfortunately the play didn’t turn out to be half as good as I hoped. There were some nice jokes & the plot was overall a good [...]
It’d been a while, so I decided to take in a play. Running at Sophia was Rael Padamsee’s “Two to Tango” starring Tanaaz Currim, Vinay Jain, Dilnaz Irani & Digvijay Savant.
It consisted of four short single act plays. Was very enjoyable & Ajay & I were in splits most of the time. Unfortunately the woman [...]
