Date : 8th Apr - 9th Apr

Time : 07:00pm - 10:00pm

Address : Goethe Institute, Max Mueller Bhavan, No.4, 5th Street, Rutland Gate, Near Khader Nawaz Khan Road, Thousand Lights, Central, Chennai.

Description : Mumbai based film, television and theatre artist Jyoti Dogra will showcase a solo devised piece called `Notes On Chai` in partnership with Chennai`s celebrated art and theatre groups Crea-Shakthi, Stray Factory and Perch. The show is a collection of snippets of everyday conversations with abstract sound explorations that attempt to relocate our relationship with the speaker. The piece explores the inner and outer landscape of urban life.

The humour created through these details carries within it, desires, fears and insecurities of the every day that remain unsaid and yet palpable. It attempts to capture a sense of the everyday. The abstract sound explorations in the piece are inspired from Tibetan throat singing, western overtones and extended vocal techniques.
