The spontaneous act

A first-of-its-kind playback theatre gathering for kids hopes to prepare them for scriptless performances

Kids are known to be spontaneous. A theatre company wants to hone this skill so that they also become natural actors. Ghumakad Playback Theatre, the performance wing of Rangbhumi—an applied theatre organisation—is organising a first-of-its-kind gathering for children, so that they can engage with playback theatre. "This is a spontaneous form of theatre, which doesn't follow any script. The actors get their cue from the audience," says Chetna Mehrotra, founder of Rangbhumi.

The event will also see workshops by theatre practitioners Akshay Gandhi, Pankaj Tiwari, Vinay Kumar, Arka Mukhopadhyay Abhishek Goswami and Vikramjeet Sinha.
