‘THREE WOMEN’ IN MUMBAI
‘Three Women’, a musical theatre written and directed by Isheeta Ganguly and staring Dipika Roy, Amrita Raichand, and Madhurima Nigam is all set to hit Mumbai on Friday September 5th at Tata NCPA theatre at 7.30PM.
‘Three Women’ is a musical theater and a modern response to Rabindranath Tagore’s nineteenth century Bengali Renaissance literature. The performance is crafted on the evolution of two female protagonists from Tagore’s novellas, Bimala from ‘The Home and the World’ and Charu from ‘The Broken Nest’, seen from the perspective of Kadambari Devi, Tagore’s sister in law and lifetime muse. In Tagore’s original works, the female protagonists instigate change from their patriarchal setting towards their progressive aspirations, but the sustainability of their newfound freedoms remains unanswered. ‘Three Women’ illustrates the continuing relevance of Tagore’s work as women today negotiate similar issues of identity and empowerment in the public domain.
This would also mark the theatre debut of popular actress, model, and anchor Amrita Raichand. An excited Amrita took to twitter to share her excitement of debuting in theatre. She shared the poster of her play and tweeted, “here’s what’s been keeping me away from u guys!my dream of doing#theatre has finally come through!do we have a date?”
The theme of the play is absolutely interesting and it would be great to witness the action at NCPA on Friday, September 5th.
*I am so excited to watch this.*
