How many times have you witnessed the stage set on fire? I would get on to my knees and kiss her hand. Her dancing and naughty gestures all over the musical of Maya Ravana will mesmerize anyone; for sure I was! Shobana even in her near 40s, dances with elegance and lots of energy. Her students from Kalarpana are surely world class presenters as well. This ensemble's musical performance at Christ College on Saturday, 13 Dec '08 brought few of Ramayana's chapters to life through Maya Ravana.The musical was power packed with great performances, A.R.Rahman's music and voices of Naseerudhin Shah, Mohan Lal, Jackie Shroff, Tabu, Suhasini Maniratnam, Revathy, Milind Soman and other famous film personalities. The stage setup and lighting add to a great experience. Shobana plays the evil characters of Ravana, Kaikeyi and Shoorpanakha, who are the highlight of the musical. The students perform the other characters flawlessly as well; thanks to Shobana's great choreography.
The musical having travelled through United States is now making rounds in India before it reaches Dubai. So if the show is around, do not miss it. Maya Ravana surely is a wonderful musical and visual feast!
