CinePlay is a ‘new genre’ of entertainment, a
cinematic experience inspired by a theatrical performance. Meaningful stories that are engaging
thought provoking and rooted in reality. For
the first time film making techniques are used to
create a new viewing experience for the audiences, thus expanding the reach of
theatre. It’s an entirely new experience which
is why we describe it as a combination of theatre and films so it is
CinePlay. CinePlay will exponentially expand
the reach of theater by collapsing physical, geographical and economic
limitations and at the same time become a platform for Theatre Education, for
students and teachers. Its objective is to
create an inclusive, self-sustainable platform to benefit all stakeholders,
especially the theatre community- a long-term sustainable royalty stream for
the theater community. It
is the first time a theatre production will combine a
2K picture quality, surround sound and subtitle options.
The Cineplay journey
begins with Mahesh Dattani’s Dance Like a
Man, a contemporary classic that has had over 500 live performances, and is
the longest running English play in India. The new vision brings a galaxy
of stars and theatre experts like
Nandita Das who has acted in over 30 feature films in ten languages
and done three professional plays, Subodh
Maskara an entrepreneur who has moved away from the corporate world to
explore his passion for the arts. Umesh Gupta, who flirts with many
mediums and has more than 1000 hours of content experience as an editor,
director and producer...CinePlay premiers on 20.2.14 at Tata Theatre.
