WHAT
At Curtain Call, we create intimate virtual spaces to read different thematic plays. Given the social relevance of these plays, each reading is followed by an in-depth, guided discussion on the various themes, facilitated by Aanchal Jain. YOU DO NOT REQUIRE ANY PRIOR EXPERIENCE IN THEATRE OR ACTING.
HOW
Every month, we gather and connect on Zoom, to pursue the collective interest of reading a play. Each participant is, randomly ascribed a character. They read the lines, and pour their emotions into the lines. Post reading, we engage in a robust discussion to unpack various themes and foster diverse perspectives on the various concepts and issues emerging in the play.
PLAY FOR OCTOBER
ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO's NEST by Dale Wasserman
The plot involves Randle McMurphy who contrives to be committed to a psychiatric hospital. Once incarcerated in the institution, the cost of his decision becomes apparent when he finds himself in direct conflict with Nurse Ratched. The rights of institutionalised patients, often treated cruelly, is a key theme in the play. With a strong female character, the play also raises questions about masculinity, social pressure and shame.
