LOVE & OTHER OBJECTS
Directed by
Jayampathi Guruge
This is a devised play produced by the 2018 batch of the Stages Senior Ensemble. Its cast included members of the Senior Ensemble as well as guest artists.
The production set out to reduce the divide between art and real life, creating a shared experience between people, rather than a performance viewed by an audience.
It used real love letters and true experiences of the artists. It was performed in an intimate space with actors mingling and interacting with the audience.
-
Love and Other Objects is a play created on true love experienced and expressed through 13 love letters.
