What happens when a ventriloquist gets fascinated by puppetry, loves to take things apart and put them together differently, and has a thirst for innovation?
Junoon is thrilled to invite Ramdas and Aparna Padhye- internationally-acclaimed ventriloquists, puppeteers and puppet-makers - to Mumbai Local. Ramdas Padhye is a trained ventriloquist and puppeteer who is also a puppet-maker with a mechanical engineering background. Aparna Padhye, a theatre actress and puppeteer is his able partner. Together, they have created exciting performances and shows that are a unique and eclectic expression of ventriloquism, puppetry, and inventions and innovations in that space. So much so that world-renowned puppeteers globally turn to Ramdas Padhye to make them customised puppets.
At this Mumbai Local, the duo will share their journey of constant innovation and response to new contexts, mediums and possibilities. You can look forward to delightful stories of inspirations leading to question leading to creative desires and imagination leading to innovation in puppet-making and performances of varying scales. Meet some of the puppets and have a conversation with them!
Date and time: Friday, 20th January 2017 | 5:30pm Venue:Kitab Khana, Somaiya Bhavan, Ground Floor, 45/47 Mahatma Gandhi Road, Flora Fountain, Fort
