PD Sathish Chandra
Pra.Ka.Sam in its quest of bringing out top class theater projects has
set its focus on the legendary play “Gulle Nari” (Sly Fox) originally written
and directed by the veteran theater legend Srinivas Prabhu in early 80’s. The play is a comical satire which was
created in the earlier days of Prabhu’s career but is absolutely relatable to the
current scenario in the society.
USP’s of the play:
·
The play is a
classic comic satire written by veteran NSD topper Srinivas Prabhu
·
The songs are
superbly written & beautifully composed by the Light Music legend Upasana
Mohan, a first time for him he has considered it as a challenge & delivered
in style
·
Not even single
English, Hindi or words from any other language are used in this play, making
it a 100% Kannada Play & a purist delight to watch
·
No blackouts ever in
the play making it a continuously running comedy & technically profound
·
Eye opener for all
of us, keeping in mind the stereotypic and cynic lifestyles we are leading
·
The songs have
turned the play into a comic musical, a rare and untried theatric genre
Director’s Note: P D Sathish Chandra
My dad took me to this play when I was seven & I remember the songs
and the never ending laughter inside the auditorium. I requested Srinivas Prabhu Ji to lend me the
script to stage; he was very delighted to hear my small story of how I got introduced
to theater & not only lend me the script but also gave me insights to
direction of the play. The script was so
tempting I could not resist myself from not acting & take the role of the
Crow. Am sure this would be the
classiest play Pra.Ka.Sam has ever produced & I have ever directed.
