NOTE FROM: A. VERONICA FERNANDES:

It is my request to all Tiatrists who are staging their Tiatros at Ravindra Bhavan, henceforth while making announcements of their Tiatros, to indicate only the Hall Name as "Pai Tiatrist"
and nothing else. The name "Ravindra Bhavan" is not essential since Pai Tiatrist is the only hall in Margao. People will understand the location when the name Pai Tiatrists is indicated. In this way, the image of Pai Tiatrist and the Tiatro Hall will be bright.

Secondly, after my last article on The House of Pai Tiatrist, I was expecting somebody to initiate a project plan for the renovation of the House of Pai Tiatrist and put it in front of the Government or public and lovers of Tiatro for the necessary action thru proper channel. But, up to now, nothing has been done. Somebody interested should apply his mind on this.
