TIATRO "GRANDPA"
Charminng Antonette de Maina
On 26th of
this month in Panjim at Kala Academy A/C Hall, at 10.30 in the morning, I saw
the Tiatro “GRANDPA” written and directed by Comedian Sally. Though it was a nice Tiatro, story wise as
well as comedy yet it was very sad to see only a small number of attendees
attending it.

The main story was good
related to the revenge and envy in the family in which three well-known
directors namely Mario Menezes, Pascoal Rodrigues and Comedian Agostinho played
major roles in addition to the important role played by the director of this
Tiatro, Comedian Sally.

Tari as usual was the
centre of attraction in his role as the abroad based son who was ably assisted
in his role by pretty looking Antonette de Maina as his wife. The role played by a small boy as their son
was fantastic. Very accurately and admirably
seasoned artiste Pascoal Rodriges played the role of Grandpa. He was very nicely depicted as a prisoner in
the Prison Cell. Again, as usual Roma did justice to her role by very
appropriately playing the role of a Nun.

In the comedy part,
Comedian Agostinho put his input well by being witty and sarcastic and he was
ably supported by other comedians well especially by comedian Joana.

In the Side Show part,
Marcus Vaz’s solo in his recent trip to USA along with Samy Tavares troupe was
very interesting. Saby de Divar’s solo
was applauded the most where he tears the government into pieces. He also
rendered a trio along with his partners on FC Goa football team. Mario Menezes’
trio with his partners was very informative, so also the solos of Rosario de
Benaulim and Pascoal Rodrigues.

Congratulations to the
director and his entire troupe for staging a nice Tiatro.
