Actor, theatre person and executive director of IFA Anmol Vellani says after an epic play like Woyzeck he will be working on the dramatic monologues of Robert Browning

Why did you choose a play like Woyzeck?
Woyzeck is the first play in western drama, which politicised tragedy, where the common man is the victim. The play explores lust, infidelity, brutality, depravity and murder with a radical vision and compact intensity unequalled in the history of drama. I believe in doing plays that give me some sense of satisfaction. Tragedy is usually portrayed as an external force. But in Woyzeck, a man's actions create a complex web around him that traps him. The play, set in 19th century Prussia, is about oppression, its causes and consequences.
