‘Comically incorrect’: ‘FOUR SHORT COMEDY PLAYS’ by Anton Chekhov

Four short comic pieces written in a very formal manner yet mean pure
unadulterated humor. Differential characterization, hilarious one liners,
apt lighting and music makes comically incorrect a worth while watch.Each
short play set in a different league of its own having no connection with
one another, makes it even more entertaining. Cult welcomes you to witness
this mesmerizing portrait drawn on the canvas of theatre.

PLAY 1 THE DEFENCELESS CREATURE
A callous confrontation between a bank manager having gout and a noisy
housewife….

Play 2 THE ARRANGEMENT
The arrangement delightfully shows a father’s concern to give his 19 year
old son a gift, a gift that no father would be dreaming of giving his son.
Well! He wants him to become a man; he does so by taking him to a woman ..

PLAY 3 THE SURGERY
A dentist - I am sorry, a dentist to be, I mean he has all the experience as
a doctor only that he does not posses a doctors degree .waiting for a

There is a Music workshop planned for this month at Alliance Francaise de
Bangalore. The classes will consist of interesting information about music,
the theory, history and other elements behind it and a great deal of
information and training on how to nurture a good performing voice for the
stage especially for singing.

Although the classes are aimed to benefit people interested in vocal music
or performance in general (singing), it will also greatly benefit those who
are playing any other instruments like the Guitar but have little knowledge
about Music theory. It will also be an interesting learning for theater
enthusiasts especially actors to help their awareness of the performing
voice onstage!

Venue: Alliance Francaise de Bangalore
Starting: September 28, ‘09
Timing: Mondays - 530pm to 630pm
Course duration: 1 hour/per week for 10 weeks.
Course content: Basic Music theory, Health for stage performers (singers and
actors), Sight singing, Ear training, Body awareness, among other elements.
Course fee: Rs. 2500/-
