[Reader-list] [Announcements] The Nonsense World of Sukumar Ray

[Logos Theatre]

Easy Library and the SpeechMagic initiative of Logos Theatre , are
presenting 'The Nonsense World of Sukumar Ray', a performance for children
and adults based on the brilliant absurd poems and sketches of Sukumar
Ray. This
performance is based on 'Abol Tabol: The Nonsense World of Sukumar Ray', the
English translation of Ray's masterpiece Abol Tabol by Sampurna Chattarjee,
published by Penguin India. This performance by Arka Mukhopadhyay will focus
on bringing alive the wonderful and magical world of Ray through
dramatically charged renditions.

*About Sukumar Ray: *
Born in an illustrious literary family (his father was Upendrakishore Roy
Chowdhuri, a great children's writer and one of the pioneers of printing
technology in India; and his son, the great Satyajit Ray), Sukumar Ray left
behind an astonishing corpus of writing for children in his brief span of
thirty six years. His sheer genius for absurd verse can hold its own against
the best creations of the genre of literary nonsense, and his bevy of
wonderful characters - kaathburo, kumropotash, bombagorer raaja, paagla
dashu, etc., are comparable to the characters of Alice In Wonderland for
their richness and imaginative detail.

The performance, which is being presented as a part of Easy Library's
read-on series, is on Sunday, January 27th from 11AM - 12PM, at the library
premises on 972 H, 1st A Main, ST Bed Lyt, 4th Block, Koramangala,
Bangalore. Contact Easy Library on 41102231 or 25501499 to register for the
event.

If it be now, 'tis not to come;
if it be not to come, it will be now;
if it be not now, yet it will come: the readiness is all.
Since no man has aught of what he leaves, what is 't to leave betimes?
Let be.
