Sushmita Dutta Sudipta Thanks for this lovely review on Broken Images. I am completely in agreement with you that -The technique looked more gimmicky rather than an absolute necessity… Reflecting on theater productions today that incorporate modern communication technologies I wonder if the trend is purposeful or just an attempt to break away from the 2 dimensional monotony of theater that we have lived through for years and now seek a variation. Alyque Padamsee’s one of the early commercial shows I had seen Evita also had very strikingly different useage of lights and stage crafts to create an illusionary effect. It didn’t appear gimmicky in fact the effects blended well with the play and also retained the purity of theater experience. In this production he could have had two levels of platforms a higher level for the larger than life character and Shabana could have acted both roles live on stage. But Alyque proffered a technological device though he is an absolutely dedicated theater person. I wonder why. Any other comments Best Sushmita http://www.novel-ebiz.com
