Prithvi Theatre goes online
Live MintIn over four decades, there has rarely been a time when the Mumbai-based Prithvi Theatre did not host a performance. Like others, the theatre in Juhu, which celebrates its 42nd anniversary this month, is adapting and embracing the “new normal” with a series of digital workshops. “However, the whole Prithvi team just put their heads down and worked hard towards the ‘new normal’ in an attempt to somehow extend the Prithvi experience, the core values, across the digital space and try and maintain the personal intimacy we are known for.” Kabi, a multiple award-winning theatre and film actor and acting coach, is gearing up for his workshops but says the online experience cannot compare with a live acting workshop. “Acting, like any art form, requires to be learnt in a particular physical space and physical rhythm,” he says. “The world became a community like never before,” she says, adding that she started her online experience with a three-day workshop for children with research editor and content writer Merle Almeida.
