Project Passion is all about speaking to and getting to know the people who have never lost sight of what they are passionate about and what has kept them going. In this video, we are speaking to Virkein Dhar and Amitesh Grover, the masterminds behind an immersive theatrical performance meant to transport you to another place.
Table Radica is a food table, an archival table, a listener’s table. It opens up archives into a live experience, and expands the notion of taste beyond a corporeal experience to an encounter with aesthetics, love, desire and life.
In an immersive experience with food, documents, found footage, and music, all sorts of stimuli are brought to a community table to touch, taste, see, or hold. An intimate audience is invited to become visitors, friends, tasters, and witnesses to a radical life led on stage and beyond. This first episode of Table Radica presents the life, loves, and food of Habib Tanvir, an iconic Urdu and Hindi playwright, a director, poet and actor of the modern theatre in India, a man of the world.
