Human emotions are best explored through the eyes of the artist,
who carefully captures it on canvas, crafts it in the form of literature, and
celebrates it in music. Gurudeb Rabindranath Tagore is the master of all these
forms of expression. Mayar Khela is
one of the many masterpieces penned by the Maestro. Yet it stands alone by
virtue of the richness of it’s songs, the interconnecting musical interludes,
and particularly, in the elaborate
representation of the basic human emotion called LOVE.
Mohor
Entertainment LLP is delighted to announce Mayar Khela which is scheduled for 10th
December 2016 in Mumbai. The musical extravaganza deals with the confused heart
that stutters and stumbles on its way to the realization of it’s dream. It showcases
the pain of rejection, the anxiety of desire, the joy of acceptance, displaying
along the way, a brilliant evolution of the characters who transform and often
elevate themselves, to the sheer awe of the audience.
Literary and
aesthetic beauty are not the only points that will be highlighted in this
representation of the drama. It is about
to take a gigantic step forward from the time it was first staged in 1888. This
is the first time that Mayar Khela will
be performed in it’s entirety, without any cuts at all. It has taken nearly five years of meticulous
effort with the script and the music to make this dream a reality. The vision
of this performance will not be limited to the literal representation of the
songs and script. In fact, for the very
first time, this Tagore Dance Drama will be interpreted in the form of an
Opera, with multilayered stage and dance sequences that have incorporated a
perfect blend of Indian Classical and Western Contemporary forms.
