The stage was always meant to crystallise living experiences. From movement to props and sets, it can often replicate the philosophical questions of mankind through its stories. For Yamini Joshi and Evita-Marie Marques, all it took was a book and two readers.
“It is tough to find anyone who reads plays regularly,” Joshi admits. It was her quest to read plays that led to the founding of Alfaaz Theatre with friend and fellow-Xavierite, Evita-Marie Marques in 2021. “With the exception of stages like Prithvi Theatre or the NCPA (National Centre for Performing Arts), we don’t have bookstores that stock up on plays. The biggest showrooms don’t have books on plays for actors to read from,” she notes.
