Host of other actors and artists from the global theatre community come together in a daily online show hosted by Coconut Theatre

Since 26 April Coconut Theatre has been hosting ‘Chai-Wai & Rangmanch’ in association with TicketNinja.in. The daily 6 pm show features veteran actors, writers, directors, theatre designers and technicians on Coconut Theatre’s Facebook Page sharing their memorable experiences, stories and inspiring tips with theatre lovers.

The ongoing first season of “Chai-Wai & Rangmanch 2020” has had 108 online sessions with theatre experts from different parts of India and various other countries.

“On account of Covid-19 and the worldwide lockdown, 2020 has been a bleak year for the theatre industry which thrives on live acts,” says Rashmin Majithia, producer of Coconut Theatre and Managing Director of Coconut Media Box LLP. “With this online initiative we hoped to connect the theatre fraternity locally and globally. It was an ambitious project as we had to get theatre veterans from different parts of India and world, and from different theatre cultures over different time zones.”

Majithia, also an industrialist, will host the last session (108th) of the first season of “Chai-Wai & Rangmanch 2020” on 3 August. He will share his views as a theatre producer considering the current situation.

Other sessions include actor Shatrughan Sinha on 30 July; director Subhash Ghai on 31 July; actor Supriya Pathak on 1 August; and actor Shabana Azmi on 2 August.

Dear Reader,

The Indian Sun is an independent organisation committed to community journalism. We have, through the years, been able to reach a wide audience especially with the growth of social media, where we also have a strong presence. With platforms such as YouTube videos, we have been able to engage in different forms of storytelling. However, the past few years, like many media organisations around the world, it has not been an easy path. We have a greater challenge. We believe community journalism is very important for a multicultural country like Australia. We’re not able to do everything, but we aim for some of the most interesting stories and journalism of quality. We call upon readers like you to support us and make any contribution. Do make a DONATION NOW so we can continue with the volume and quality journalism that we are able to practice.

Thank you for your support.

Best wishes,
