Rating : *****
Mumbai theater has produced so many good plays and “Dance Like A Man” is one of them. This was a 621st show at Royal opera house in Mumbai which is perfect venue to have grand re-opening show. The play was first performed at Chowdiah Memorial Hall, Bangalore on 22 September 1989
The Story: Story revolves around past
and present with the same cast with dual acts this is the most delightful
creation of writer. Story is a tale of three generation; their visions, struggles,
sacrifices and internal conflicts which mainly focuses on dancing couple on how
they muddle through life.
The Performance: Having
all the veteran cast in the play leaves no room for error in performance, all the
actors did full justice to their character, with decent balance of male and
female acts. Lillete Dubey and Suchitra pillai done a fabulous job in gripping
the audience with their best skills on the other hand Joy & Anant has also set
a boundless efforts with their charm.
The Verdict: With
commanding performance and abundant story telling art this is a must watch
play,watch it twice if you are a kathak or kuchipudi dancer you will enjoy it. This
has already completed 621 shows globally and I wish this should touch 1k mark.
