Shah Latif Sufi Musical Night
Wed May 2, 7:30 PM
Lamakaan Programming Team and Vipul Rikhi
Rooh ji Rehaan | A Gathering of Souls
Stories, Poetry and Songs from the world of Shah Latif
Those who set out with nothing
Experience union
Those who bedeck themselves
Remain forsaken
- Shah Latif
Explore the poetry of the great 18th century Sindhi Sufi poet Shah Abdul Latif Bhitai, through storytelling, translations and songs. Vipul Rikhi shares these stories along with interpretations of their deep significance for Latif. There will be translations of the poetry in English and, most importantly, songs of Latif in the kaafi form, which are part of the folk oral traditions of Kutch, Gujarat.
Shah Abdul Latif Bhitai was a great 18th century Sufi poet who, without exaggeration, can be called the Voice of Sindh. His poetry draws on the power and beauty of Sufi as well as Yogic thought, melding the two philosophies into one poetic and spiritual vision. His major work is the “Shah Jo Risalo” and his poems thrive today as a vibrant oral tradition being widely sung, quoted and loved by both Hindu and Muslim communities in the Sindh and Kutch regions on both sides of the Indo-Pak border.
In a world where women voices were unheard of, Latif took popular love legends of the region and spoke through the voices of different women protagonists, to weave a web of poetry that plays tantalizingly between the levels of ishq-e-majaazi, worldly love, and ishq-e-haqeeqi, spiritual love.

The duration of the program will be around 90 minutes.
Vipul Rikhi is a poet, fiction writer, translator and singer, and a co-creator of the web archive 'Ajab Shahar'. His work with Kabir Project includes extensive writings and translations in the field of Bhakti, Sufi and Baul poetry. In the course of these journeys he has developed a deep love for singing mystic poetry in the folk music traditions. In his performances, he likes to bring equal emphasis to the poetry and its resonances in our lives as to the sheer beauty of many of the folk tunes. He is also the author of a novel and collections of poetry and short stories.

EK Soirachari Rajar Katha
Thu May 3, 8:00 PM
Shudrka Hyderabad
The play, “Ek Soirachari Rajar Katha” (The Story of a Despot) has drawn from Camus' “Caligula” the concept of deification of emperors which was common to the pagan world, the Greek and Macedonian kings. Raja (the king) discovers on the death of his sister and lover, Aparupa, that people die and they are not happy. From this point on, obsessed by his search for the absolute, poisoned with contempt and horror, he tries to exercise, through murders and systematic perversion of all values. He rejects friendship, love, simple human solidarity, and the concepts of good and evil. He takes literally all those around him like Taruni, his poet-friend, and forces them to see things logically, and levels everything around him through the force of his rejection. But if his truth involves revolting against destiny, his mistake is to deny humanity. One cannot destroy everything without destroying one's self. This is why Raja depopulates the world around him and, faithful to his own logic, decides to strangle Kamini, his mistress, uttering his gospel of hate at everything around him. This play is the story of a superior suicide, as described by Camus. It is the most human of stories and the most tragic of errors. Faithless to humanity out of faith in himself, he accepts to die for having understood that no one can save himself by himself, and that one cannot be free while opposing humanity. The play remains universally relevant. It represents the face of contemporary despotism, not only in terms of the whimsical madness of rulers, but also in terms of how people react to such rule with a glimmer of hope for the future.

Remembering Tagore
Tue May 8, 7:30 PM
Sanghamitra Malik and Lamakaan Programming Team
On the occasion of 157th Birthday celebrations of Nobel Laureate, Rabindranath Tagore, Sanghamitra Malik and Lamakaan bring an evening of Rabindra Sangeet and Poetry.
' Tagore was the foremost lyricist of his language, Bangla and the most celebrated composer of his music. He had composed the tunes for all the songs he wrote except one. He has written near about 2300 songs which are an integral part of the Bengali culture and collective psyche.
Tagore's songs are primarily divided into six different categories and come under the following headings:- Puja meaning Reverence, Prem meaning Love for one and all, Prakriti meaning the Six Indian Seasons, Swadeshi meaning Patriotic, Nritya Naatak meaning Dance Drama and Vichitra(Anushthanik) meaning Ceremonial.
A few songs under different categories will be presented. They will be in Bangla and also in Hindi for those who do not follow Bangla. There will be a song in English as well as English translations presented, of a couple of songs. These would enable the non-Bengali listeners to enjoy the beauty of Tagore's melodies.
The songs will be interspersed with some lesser known facts about the great poet.'

I Dream Before I Take The Stand
Fri May 18, 8:00 PM
Manch Theatre
I Dream Before I Take The Stand is a "feminist classic" written by the famous playwright Arlene Hutton. She is the author of Last Train to Nibroc (2000 New York Drama League Best Play nomination) and the Shaker drama As It Is In Heaven, both of which were selected for Smith & Kraus Best Women Playwrights anthologies.
In this thirty-minute one-act play a defense lawyer cross-examines a woman during her testimony in a sexual assault case—and in doing so, horribly distorts her perfectly innocent walk in the park. The questions tear her deep down. The defense attorney rips off her dignity torturing her verbally through his abusive questions. This Play makes for a riveting piece of theater with the writing being pithy and fierce.

PRATIDWANDI is a 1970 Indian Bengali drama film written and directed by Satyajit Ray based on the novel by Sunil Gangopadhyay.
The film is set in the decade of a wide range of political turmoil in India during partition. The protagonist Siddhartha is forced to give up his study of medicine and his ambition of becoming a doctor at the demise of his father. He makes several fruitless attempts to secure a job but he doesn't get any due to rampant unemployment. He finds his only solace in Keya, who loves him but is troubled by the problems in her own family. A large part of the narrative is dominated by Ray's allusions to the moral decadence of the city and the youth in particular. During several scenes, Ray makes use of dream sequences and memory sequences to portray the thoughts of Siddhartha.

It is often the complexity of our problems, the hardships that we triumph upon, that makes life worthy of living, that gives us experiences to learn from, stories to share.
Wouldn't it thus be interesting, to watch what happens when unique individuals with incredibly unique personalities chance upon an unexpected meeting one fine evening?
What stories would emerge when the very nature of humanity is discussed and presented via unique experiences. Anecdotes that remind us of the humanity we are all a part of, stories that teach, entertain, yet intrigue. For when the topic is as complex as life itself, words may not always be said. Kuch Kahi - Kuch Ankahi?

The Language of (He)Art
Thu May 24, 8:00 PM
Mrs. Rashme Ramakrishnan
This program is an attempt to offer a holistic understanding of art and explore the depths of meaning presented by the language of art. Dance, music or art springs from the depths of the human heart. Most often, this essence is missed in the technical presentation of the art form. Taken in isolation, the technicalities remain rigid scientific principles that, apart from the skilled artist, are inaccessible to a vast majority of population. The essence of art lies in its connection with the feelings of the soul. This is the true language of art. Taken in unison, the art form, whether dance or music, becomes a refreshing beacon of light for all of humanity – both the performer and the passive observer.

About The Play - Rajkumar has been requested to write a poem for a compilation to be published. If you knew Rajkumar you’d realize the absurdity of the request.
In eighty minutes monologue, Rajkumar tells us about his unremarkable life in his nondescript village and the five grains of sugar – the five people – who have stood out in this drab life for reasons stranger than fiction. The filmy mother; her poet brother Pundaleek; Raghu, the school hero; old man Radhey; and the anonymous ‘Truckwala dost’. As Rajkumar talks, the five grains become a single life-game that he has been unknowingly playing for years…and Rajkumar realizes that everyone has a story inside them.

Urban sketchers how intimidating it can be to start a new medium. We also know how it feels to deny your inner artist, doubt yourself, and deal with stress and anxiety and how as kids and parents you feel anxious about adopting art and coloring as a profound hobby.

A place where kids (7+ years) and their parents can become experienced with watercolors and improve their skills and painting techniques so they gain the confidence to paint fearlessly. Limited to 20 seats only and INR 100 per entry (only material cost)
We will help you overcome the fear of trying new things by letting you take the first step without being judged.

Addabaazi on Thootukudi Violence
Sun May 27, 7:30 PM
Lamakaan Programming Team
13 ppl were shot dead in Tuticorin to continue the environmentally degrading yet profitable business of Sterlite company (a subsidiary of Vedanta group)
Many local ppl and workers were protesting against Sterlite copper unit of Vedanta group from many days. They were asking to shut down the copper production as its pollutants are causing health hazards among local ppl and it is also damaging the local soil and waterbed causing loss of crops. In order to curb down the protest, police used brutal force like snipers on the local ppl. In this state-supported action, 13 ppl died due to police firing. A protest which was for a better environment and a hazard free life has been crushed by the state machinery in order to let the Sterlite group continue with the operations at Tuticorin.
This clearly shows a clear nexus between the big businesses like Vedanta group and the political class. A very clear support by the state for the benefits of business class is evident here. The government has supported Vedanta group before also by giving free lands and letting them exploit the natural resources at many of its facilities. Be it Congress or BJP, all governments have helped Vedanta group to continue hazardous operations of its plants in past.
