"Audiences in Bengaluru exhibit a genuine curiosity for new experiences, different from other cities, notes director and playwright Roysten Abel. Teaming up with accomplished percussionist Ranjit Barot, Roysten is bringing a unique audio-visual performance titled Beat Route to the city this weekend. This show will showcase the collaboration of 10 master folk percussionists from Rajasthan and Kerala, promising an 'earthy, high-spirited electro experience.' Roysten emphasizes the importance of creating a fresh and enjoyable experience without artificiality or pressure. He finds excitement in crafting something truly distinctive, especially when working with talented musicians who are exposed to a novel concept for the first time. In a discussion, he reflects on the evolving audience preferences and the enduring appeal of theatre to younger demographics. Roysten also shares how he draws inspiration from his own personal experiences to create original music and productions, focusing on innovation and individuality rather than imitation. Experimentation is a natural part of his creative process, offering a fresh perspective and engaging experience for both himself and the audience."The event will take place at Chowdiah Memorial Hall on October 5th at 5 pm.
