7:00pm|THEATRE|CINEPLAY- A new genre of cinema. Prod. An initiative of Chhoti Productions. Screening of Bombay Talkies (Hindi/English/77mins) Dir & Wri. Vickram Kapadia The play depicts the lives of seven people living in Mumbai, all with their own uniquely moving story. It tries to capture the essence of people living in the city through seven characters who have been strung together in a series of monologues. Stories about the ambitions of a child artiste, the escape of a ridiculed wife into art, a single mother’s sacrifice of her life for the sake of her children, child abuse, a TV reporter’s regret of the media’s inability to celebrate positivism rather than sensationalism and negative news, a hilarious take on corruption by a broker and the west beckoning today’s youth are all interwoven. Each character, marked by failure and doubt are clearly self –censored. While they may communicate through candid expression, they subtly allude to greater truths. Tickets at Rs.500, Rs.300 & Rs.200 available at the Programmes Desk. An Old World Culture presentation.
