UNDEFINING ROLES Vaishali Bisht’s plays will focus on changing gender roles
Vaishali Bisht is presenting an evening of theatre – “Face Off” – based on the various phases of a woman’s life and “Write, Right and Rite” – dealing with today’s world of infinite choices this evening at 7.30 p.m. at Ranga Shankara, No. 36/2 8th Cross, J.P. Nagar Phase II. “Face Off” is a set of five dramatic sketches – “One” will focus on a divorced woman who is caught between her own traditional and modern outlooks. “Waiting for Mr. Right” is an exploration of a woman’s expectations set in the luxury and languor of a zenana boudoir. “Man of my Dreams” is a comic monologue of a teenage girl who has to deal between social acceptance and the need for recognition and love.
“Tit for Tat” looks at the predicament of a woman in the corporate world where success and growth are defined by masculine values and standards. “An Affair to Remember” looks at romance from myriad emotions. “Write, Right and Rite” looks at a writer who is frozen in the stranglehold of writer’s block and attempts to choose her path along with the many parts of herself who emerge as characters, each one eager to be the one who will dominate Prerna’s choices and actions.
