Vikrant Dhote Actor [English Theatre ] Which is the last best play you saw? NOTES ON CHAI by Jyoti Dogra Your favourite 'adda' to see a play Prithvi Theatre. G5A in Mahalxmi is a wonderful space. I'm waiting to go and watch something there. Your favourite playwright Martin Mcdonagh, Tim Miller (He's more of a performer-deviser) A play you would like to see filmed. Why? THE PILLOWMAN by Martin Mcdonagh, just so that I can watch it again and again. The play itself feels like a collaboration between Tim Burton and Wes Anderson. A novel/short story you would like to see on stage? Why? 'The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World', and 'Light is Like Water' by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. There's something incredibly simple and magical about both these stories. The most hilarious play you have seen DOCTOR BROWN: THE BEXPERIMENT/ LE FOULARD by Lucy Hopkins. A play, which is over-hyped Peter Brook's BATTLEFIELD. An important play (but ignored) SHIVAJI UNDERGROUND IN BHIMNAGAR MOHALLA, directed by Nandu Madhav. I think it was popular in the Marathi theatre scene but should have been adapted to Hindi and English. It's a very relevant play. How do you regard the Mumbai theatre scene? It's vibrant, but there's a long way to go. I'm glad there are a lot more performance venues now and people are beginning to experiment with different spaces. We definitely need more institutional support and also need to find even more ways to make it viable and profitable. If you have ever been a part of a theatre production/s, can you recall an event that was insightful, significant or simply humorous? I was playing a much older character in a play and I had a fake moustache on. It was so hot, that halfway through the show the left side of the moustache kept coming off. I tried to stick it back on several times. Finally, I made a dramatic gesture, took it off in front of the entire audience and threw it off stage to a whole round of cheering and applause. Can you think of a foreign production that you found remarkable? Why? WAR HORSE directed by Nick Stafford. The scale of the show and the skill of the puppeteers are incredible. A significant Indian production that you may have witnessed Ramu Ramanathan's KASHMIR KASHMIR.   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.
