Director Joy Fernandes' new play, Clowns@Play hopes to use clowning as an art form to highlight serious civic and social issues for children, writes Kareena N Gianani
These days, theatre director Joy Fernandes often shuts himself with his troupe and just clowns around. And he wants to be taken seriously, but not too seriously.
Fernandes’ new play for children, Clowns@Play will be on stage at the NCPA this Friday, May 17. Heavy doses of laughter, says Fernandes, will have embedded discussions on social issues-without getting didactic about them.
