Yesterday, 4th of this
month, at 7.30 PM, I saw the new Tiatro “STRIKE”, at Kala Academy A/C Hall,
written and directed by comedian Agostinho Temudo who is also the current
President of Tiatro Academy of Goa. It
was well attended by almost a full house
attendees and it was also enacted well by all the members of the troupe.
Special credit must surely go to Dola who played the role of the sick mother
and wife; her two sorrowful Cantos were
of very high grade and she rendered the same also with her high grade sorrowful
voice. As her husband the role played by the seasoned artiste Pradeep was
admirable leaving no room for any defect.
Duet of Benny de Aldona and Dola
As usual Willy played
his role well of a brother of the politician Juju who showed to the audience
once again why he is one of the best artistes playing such roles. Other
artistes also played their respective roles well and the direction given by
Agostinho was well followed by all the artistes as seen from their performance.
One Scene
Comedy part was nicely
handled by all the three ace comedians, namely Agostinho himself, Selvy and
Jannet.
Seen in the scene above are Dola and Pradeep
The story of the Tiatro
“Strike” is based on politics where due to the personal benefits for the local
politician Strikes are organized thereby putting the innocent public into inconvenience
due to Road Blocks and goondagiri of the strikers. As leader of the strikers, Willy excelled in
his role. The end part was very well
displayed where the sick woman finally dies because she was prevented to go to
the Clinic by the Strike leaders.
Benny de Aldona singing his solo
A tragic scene where on the lap of Pradeep is dead Dola
Side Show Songs needed
little more punch though it was not bad.
Marcus Vas rendered both his solos well so too Benny de Aldona with his
beautiful voice. His duet with attractive
Dola was well accepted by the audience.
Comedian Selvy’s solo was good.
