Event Description : THEATRE : Old World Culture Presents Old World Theatre Festival. 

The curtain-up on 8 October will be with the acclaimed Ramayana brought alive by Jalabala Vaidya and Akshara theatre, a moving tribute to theatre doyen Gopal Sharman who passed away earlier this year. The timeless classic Ibsen’s Doll’s House by Ila Arun has Ira Dubey of M Cream fame in the lead. On the other end of the spectrum we have Purva Naresh’s hugely entertaining Ladies Sangeet, and Barff featuring the versatile actress Sadia Siddiqui and veteran actor-director Saurabh Shukla. The New Delhi premiere of light designer par excellence Argya Lahiri’s directorial debut Wild Track features Devika Shahani and Jaimini Pathak. The discreet lives of the drag kings, a subculture that’s not too well known will play out in The Gentlemen’s Club AKA Tape. The much-anticipated solo White Rabbit Red Rabbit and Anish Victor’s choreographed solo Koogu are defining additions to the festival. Kaizad Kotwal’s widely debated Agnes of God and Tadpole Repertory’s Tees on the collapse of traditional agriculture are notable selections that give a whole new dimension to the festival’s scope.

For the first time around, a theatre workshop series titled Cycloroma 2016 has been interwoven into the festival design. The session leaders include some of the gifted theatre artistes in the country today, such as Anurupa Roy, Anahita Uberoi, Sudhanva Deshpande, Puja Sarup, Sheena Khalid, Arghya Lahiri, Jaimini Pathak, Purva Naresh, Gopal Dutt and Neel Chaudhuri. Theatre lovers and students have much to gain from these workshops with sessions ranging from acting to light design, scripting, playing with material to the use of music & song, children’s theatre etc. Participants have the option to attend either specific sessions or go for the complete workshop calendar, and the full day sessions include a ticket to the evening's play!
