Event Description : "The Silver Streak / Your Happiness Quotient - Creativity for Women Over 50" Dialogue with Maya Krishna Rao followed by a Q&A session.

The age group 50+ comes with its own set of gender and age related preconceptions and roles. Some good: whether married or not, one lives a life filled with a variety of activities from spending time with old friends to enjoying burgeoning relationships with grandkids and grown up children and enjoying one's well deserved leisure time. Some bad: one may have been tagged with labels such as 'over the hill', or perhaps may not have received the encouragement needed to grow and further ones abilities. It is possible to also experience regret for not having followed creative activities because of familial responsibilities. This monthly dialogue, presented in association with Katyayani, will bring out the creativity that could not flourish. Be it photography, singing, dancing, theatre, poetry or prose, the monthly meets will help open up hidden talents to others. 

Maya Krishna Rao has been working in theatre - on and off stage - for the last forty years. She dances, acts, creates and directs herself. She does stand-up comedy built on current political events and social issues. Her shows have covered a range of forms - street theatre, dance theatre, political cabaret and comedy. Maya also works with schools - students and teachers - and uses drama as teaching and learning methodology. As Professor at Shiv Nadar University she has designed a Diploma programme on drama for education. Maya received the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award for Acting in 2010. 
In April the dialogue will continue with a talk and workshop by the author and painter Bulbul Sharma.
