Manasi Prabhakar Joshi Actress By Vipul Mahagaonkar Which is the last play you liked and why? THE FATHER by Motley. Because of legendary actors Naseer ji and Ratna ji. And also its presentation at Experimental Theatre. I saw this kind of quadrangle performance for the very first time where the audience was framed around the stage. Your favourite adda to see a play... Dinanath Auditorium, Prithvi Theatre, NCPA. Your favourite playwright... Vasant Kanetkar, Ratnakar Matkari. Your favourite play-character... All charactors from the play SURYACHI PILLAY A novel/short story you would like to see on stage? Why? All comic stories by Mangala Godbole. I'm sure it will be delight for actors, directors and audiences! The most hilarious play you have seen... MUKKAM POST BOMBILWADI A play, which is over-hyped... TILA KAHI SANGAYCHAY An important play (but ignored): Chetan Datar's 1, MADHAV BAUG A play character you would like to "dialogue" with... VARHAD NIGHALAY LONDONLA A passage from an important play that you can recite... ASA MEE ASA MEE A play that changed your perception about the theatre... JUNGLE MEIN MANGAL BY CHETAN DATAR How do you regard the Mumbai/Indian theatre scene? It's ignorant and still needs to improve in terms of facilities, technology, infrastructure. Can you recall an event that was insightful, significant or simply humorous during your theatre journey? Theatre has the power of changing lives! It's always a meditative experience! It takes you to another world without moving physically. Can you think of a foreign production that you found remarkable? Why? Tim Supple's A MIDSUMMER NIHT'S DREAM. That was extremely special experience. They made this classic play with Indian dialects. So the play sounded multilingual. Also they used lot of physical theatre. I saw this performance twice, once at the Tata Theatre, and and another at the BKC ground with the real moon in the background! It was a mesmerizing experience! Your favourite director/actor/music or set designer... All time favourite Pradip Mulye! A significant Indian production that you may have witnessed..... SANGEET GIRIBALA by Awishkar Mumbai Life in the theatre without the humble batata-wada or the cutting chai... or can you recall the best gastronomic experience you've had in the precincts of the theatre to date? Chai And batata wada are an integral part of the theatre experience! *Vipul Mahagaonkar is a director, playwright and filmmaker   read / post your comments More Speaks Aakanksha Gade Abhishek Pattnaik Adhaar Khurana Adhir Bhat Theatre Speak Aish Pandit Theatre Speak Ajitesh Gupta Akanksha Gupta Akarsh Khurana Akriti Singh Akshat Nigam Akshay Shimpi Aman Gupta Aman Gupta Theatre Speak Amit Behl Amol Parashar Anand Tiwari Ankit Soni Anubha Fatehpuria Apara Mehta Archana Patel Nandi Arghya Lahiri Arnesh Ghose Arun Kakade Aseem Hattangady Ashish Saleem Ashutosh Potdar Ashwin Gidwani Asif Ali Beg Atul Kumar Atul Satya Koushik Azaad Bhakti Rathod Bhushan Korgaonkar Bijon Mondal Boman Irani Brajesh Hirjeev Chaitanya Tamhane Charudatta Bhagwat Chirag Vohra Theatre Speak Chitralekha Rathod Chitransh Pawar Cyrus Dastoor Damini Kanwal Danesh Irani Darrshan Jariwalla Debobrata Banerjee Deepika Deshpande Amin Deesh Mariwala Delna Patel Devika Shahani Punjabi Dhanendra Kawade Theatre Speak Dharmendra Gohil Dhruv Lohumi Dilnaz Irani Dinesh Thakur Dinyar Tirandas Divya Jagdale Divya Palat Dolly Thakore Faezeh Jalali Theatre Speak Gaurav Singh Geeta Manek Theatre Speak Gurleen Judge Hardik Sangani Harsh Desai Harshal Singh Hidayat Ali Sami Hilda David Himanshu Singh Howard Rosemeyer Hridaynath Jadhav Hussaini Dawawala Huzan Wadia Imran Rasheed Inaayat Ali Sami Ira Dubey Ishitta Arun Jagdish Rajpurohit Jaimini Pathak Jaimini Pathak1 Jameel Khan Janak Toprani Jasvinder Singh Jayati Bhatia Theatre Speak Jaydeep Apte Jim Sarbh Joy Fernandes Joy Sengupta Jyoti Vyas Kajal Gadhia Kamlesh Mota Kamlesh Oza Karthik T M Ketan Karande Khanjan Thumber Kulvinder Bhakshish Kumud Mishra Kyla D'Souza L J Mehta Theatre Speak Lillete Dubey Lubna Salim Maanvi Gagroo Mahabano Mody Kotwal Manali Kale Manasi Prabhakar Joshi Manaswini Lata Ravindra Mandar Chandwadkar Maneesh Verma Manish Gandhi Mansi Multani MD Pallavi Meena Vaibhav Theatre Speak Meenal Patel Meher Acharia Dar Meherzad Patel Mikhail Sen Mohit Agarwal Mohit Sharma Mujeeb Khan Nageen Tanvir Nagesh Bhosale Naman Mukherji Namit Das Namrata Pathak Theatre Speak Naseeruddin Shah Naushil Mehta Naushil Mehta (Part II) Nazneen Madan Neelam Gheewala Neha Singh Nipun Dharmadhikari Nivedita Baunthiyal Om Katare Omkar Bhatkar Padma Damodaran Parag Dubey Paromita Chatterjee Pathy Aiyar Pradnya Shastri Prajakt Deshmukh Pramod Pathak Pranati Prakash Rai Pranay Gupta & Sohini Gupta Pratik Gandhi Pratik Kothari Pratima Kulkarni Preeta Mathur Pritesh Sodha Priyanshu Painyuli Quasar Thakore Padamsee Radha Bhardwaj Rahul Antani Rahul Valmiki Raj Yadav Rajeev Ravindranathan Rajendra Gupta Rajit Kapoor.
