Talk show With Mr. Abhishek Mudgal, Curator, Rang Rajasthan Theatre Festival, Jaipur, on the topic ‘Theatre & Its Challenges in COVID 19’.

The IISU Theatrical Society, ICG-IISU Alumnae Association and The Rotary club Jaipur-Gurukul organised a series of talk shows with renowned theatre artists around India in the month of December, in which the third speaker was Mr. Abhishek Mudgal who is a Theatre artist from Jaipur and currently has been working for Rangmastaney as a core team member. He not only acts in different plays but also writes and directs them. He in his session with the students talked about how the Covid-19 situation affected the world of Theatre and how they overcame the situation.  He made the students understand the importance of any kind of art in one's life, and also talked about how virtual platform is totally different from the real ones. He faced many difficulties to teach and do things online, how no stage work or physical exercises could be correctly done. After the lockdown lifted Theatre tried to get back on track by organising small workshops, plays etc, with less number of people.The session was very interactive and students got to learn many new things. They also asked the queries they had the session added by taking screenshots to keep memories of the wonderful talk show.
