Look around at events in the city and chances are that you will find a Parsi or two, in every art community. From theatre practitioners to dancers and musicians, the small but significantly arts-inclined community has steadily made its mark across the cultural landscape of Mumbai. Now, they are looking for more talent within.
The last time they got together for a similar effort was four years ago, during Drame Bawas, an attempt to bring fresh talent to the city stage. "Initially, we wanted to hold a competition for one-act plays. But, we realised that the community is active in music and dance too, why limit it to theatre?" says actor and producer Shernaz Patel of the genesis of the first talent show.
