The audience in Bengaluru is known for their genuine curiosity about new experiences, according to director and playwright Roysten Abel. Teaming up with percussionist Ranjit Barot, Roysten is preparing to present Beat Route, an audio-visual performance featuring 10 master folk percussionists from Rajasthan and Kerala. This unique show, described as an "earthy, high-spirited electro experience", will take place in the city this weekend. Roysten emphasizes the importance of creating enjoyable and authentic experiences for both himself and the team, rather than forcing anything. He finds excitement in collaborating with talented musicians and creating something truly one-of-a-kind.

Roysten reflects on the evolving audience landscape for theatre and emphasizes the need to engage individuals with short attention spans. He believes that theatre has a broader appeal to young people and underscores the importance of sustaining attention in this digital age.

When approaching new productions, Roysten draws inspiration from his personal experiences to create unique music that is fresh and engaging. He emphasizes the importance of trying new things and not imitating others, viewing experimentation as a natural part of his creative process.The show will take place at the Chowdiah Memorial Hall on October 5th at 5 pm.
