Mumbai’s theatre scene is the most vibrant, there is no argument about that, but sometimes you can’t but notice the complacency seeping in. The mainstream theatre practitioners know what their audience wants and deliver it; audiences in turn are willing to pay large sums of money to see either a film/TV star on stage or an entertaining comedy.

The experimental theatre gang works hard and with utmost sincerity but is always stymied by the lack of funds. Still, what they do with limited resources and little support from sponsors is admirable.
