GARBO
Sammukh, 2.30 & 6 pm, Fri, 15 Jan
Marathi, 100 minutes
Director: Mohit Talkakar
Playwright: Mahesh Elkunchwar
THE PLAY
The play is about a class of ‘young people’ living aimlessly with the frustration of broken dreams, the diffusion of mediocrity and the burden of inhibitions. It is a play about a generation that breaks out in defiance by living out their lives with non-conformism as a credo, and throwing up, in the process, a small minority culture containing the seeds of its own destruction within itself. Contextualized against the lives of Intuc, the frustrated intellectual, Pansy, the potential homosexual, Shrimant, the affluent but weak patron and Garbo, their mother/mistress/sex-goddess, the drama ends in the climax of her death. The play grows out of a claustrophobic real-life situation pushed to the limits of endurance, burgeoning into a surreal holy dream that proves too unreal and brittle to stands the test it is put to.
