The staging of Mark Twain: Live in Bombay! is a fascinating coming together of many worlds. Having recreated in his script the At Home Talk, which the much-loved American humourist gave in Bombay in 1896, Canadian playwright and poet Gabriel Emanuel collaborated with Kolkata-based director, actor and writer Vinay Sharma to bring it to life on stage, starting with its premiere in Mumbai this Saturday.
