As part of MAP’s Women in Art and Culture series, MAP presents four female theatre practitioners, Yuki Elias, Sharanya Ramprakash, Rashmi Ravikumar and Deepika Arwind in conversation, moderated by Lekha Naidu.
This session will delve into the idea of the ‘female gaze’ through movement and performance art and explore how women’s issues can receive a balanced and nuanced representation on the Indian stage. It will also touch upon the extent to which Indian theatre provides a space for the representation of women’s concerns and aspirations today; and the role of women directors, producers and performers in leading such representations.
This event, which is in collaboration with the Bangalore International Centre will be hosted at the BIC and will also be relayed live. To attend the event in person, please email the BIC.
