Enter Stage Right: In Conversation with Feisal Alkazi
In Conversation with Feisal Alkazi
Feisal Alkazi’s book Enter Stage Right: The Alkazi / Padamsee Family Memoir: is an important book – a landmark in theatre history – as it not only tells the story of legends like Ebrahim Alkazi, Alyque Padamsee, Sultan (Bobby) Padamsee, Roshen Alkazi and Pearl Padamsee, but also serves as a history of English language theatre in India and its equation with Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, and other regional forms of theatre, as it has never been told before. Only a few could have Feisal’s vantage point of being Ebrahim’s son and Alyque’s nephew. A book that any theatre lover will find invaluable, and anyone who loves a good story will enjoy reading.
EnActe has a special soft spot for Feisal – he wrote and directed EnActe’s first full length production Noor: Empress of the Moghuls.
Join us as Feisal explores the history of theatre in India and beyond its borders.
