Puppetry for all ages
Mint Mumbai
|February 10, 2024
Over 20 years, the Ishara puppet theatre festival has built audiences for traditional forms from around the world
Twenty years ago when the Ishara International Puppet Theatre Festival was first held in Delhi, Dadi Pudumjee was sceptical if anyone would come to attend a ticketed puppetry performance. In the ensuing years, however, not only has the audience for the annual festival increased, but the understanding of this genre of performing arts has become more nuanced. There is greater awareness about the myriad traditional forms practised in India and a heightened appreciation for the contemporary language that theatre directors and puppeteers are bringing to stage.
The 20th edition of the festival is all set to open in Delhi next week-again at the India Habitat Centre, which has been its venue through the years and the lineup features both the traditional and contemporary.
