Manaveli Performing Arts Group To Present Tenth Annual Festival

Manaveli's ArangadalManaveli Performing Arts Group, Canada's premier Tamil theatre group, is to hold its Tenth Annual Festival of Theatre and Dance at the Markham Theatre on March 09, 2003. The Festival will consist of two shows, at 12:30 pm and 6:00 pm. To meet the huge demand for Manaveli's Festivals among the Canadian Tamil community outside the GTA region, the Tenth Festival will also be held on March 29, 2003 at the Humanities Theatre at the University of Waterloo. The Tenth Annual Festival is sponsored by Peter Joseph (Legal Counsel) and Ahilan Thanabalasingam (Royal LePage).

As in previous Festivals, the exiled Tamil world's leading artists will
come together to hold five plays. (Please refer to the sub-titles of the
five plays in Page Two of this document for a description of the
plays.)

Since its inception in 1996, Manaveli has staged thirty one plays, which have been hailed by the Tamil literary world as path breaking. Manaveli has also introduced well-known English and other language  playwrights, such as Eugene Ionesco, Anton Checkov, Samuel Beckett, Jean Janet and Vaclav Havel, to the Tamil audience.
Tickets cost $ 12.50 For further details, or for interview requests, please contact:

The Five Plays at 2003 Festival
The first performance is Thani Maram (Lone Tree), in which the classical Tamil dance Bharathanatyam takes a new meaning and mode. A solitary three hundred year old Cedar tree symbolizes the spirit of nature. The grand tree bears silent witness to a cruel humanity's gregarious consumption of earthy resources. The dance is directed and performed by Malini Pararajasingham, a well known classical dancer.

Thallu Vandikkaararkal is a Tamil adaptation, by K.S. Balachandran, of the English play 'The Pushcart Peddlers' by New York playwright Murray Schisgal. First produced in 1979, 'The Pushcart Peddlers' is a comical look at learning to survive in a new land. In his Tamil adaptation, K.S. Balachandran has taken the liberty to adapt the language, names, and references in the play, so that it centres on Tamil immigrants from Sri Lanka to Canada. This play is directed by Dushy Gnanapragasam. Dushy has acted in many dramas, both in Canada and Sri Lanka, but this is his debut as a director.

The third play En Thaththaavukku Oru Kuthirai Irunthathu (My Grandpa's Horse) is directorial debut for Suganthan, who has acted in many plays produced by Manaveli. This play is a satirical treatment of colonial mentalities that still rule many minds of our society. While carefully dissecting the internalization of colonialism and its manifestations, the play also exposes our (Tamil) own racist attitudes towards fellow communities. The play has been scripted by Cheliyan, a poet, writer and playwright, whose scripts have been staged in both Canada and UK.

'Oor Poukku' (Going Home) is scripted by Cheran, a well-known face in Tamil literary circles, and directed by K Navam, who has directed a number of plays. This play is a parody on the lives and nostalgic
fantasies of the Canadian Tamil diaspora. It questions the choices of
dispersed people when peace returns in their homeland. Would they leave everything in the adopted land, say "Adieu!" and leave for their
original homeland? Or, would they become "homeland tourists" by spicing up their nostalgia with recent tours and visits?

N. Muththusamy, a distinguished writer from India, has scripted  Paakha Pirivinai (Arbitration), which is a satirical play about the influence exerted by certain powerful nations over developing countries. The play is directed by R. Sivaratnam, who coordinated the theatre group, Kaalam.
