  • Banal Dreams
    Banal Dreams Bombay Dreams is a hodge-podge of clichéd, uninspiring lines meshed together to punctuate one dance number from the next. Shekhar Deshpande Broadway is that great New York institution. Like everything else, and unlike Disney World, it is a mixed bag. There are some shows and some theater. The shows are nothing but a tourist attraction. It is a thing to do along with an expensive meal, a trip around town, preferably with a date of your choice and often a ritual with someone who needs to be courted for one reason or another. Theater on the other hand, such as it is in the age of mass produced media, is a rare and small art form that thrives in some corners. Theater is self-conscious; Broadway shows are not. The latter are a shameless exercise in showmanship. But some people like it. It is hard to figure out the reaction of the audience to Bombay Dreams. They seem to be responsive, mostly people of European origins. They were laughing, clapping and generally quite engaged with the production. So when one writes about Bombay Dreams, this becomes an essential ingredient. Perhaps Bombay Dreams, that celebrated production that arrived here from the U.K. with inspiration and guidance from Andrew Lloyd Webber and Shekhar Kapoor, serves the needs of tourists. It offers a good example of the kind of showmanship they expect, an exotic stop on their tourist route and perhaps a palatable taste of what we have come to call Bollywood. Bombay Dreams begins with an invocation of the magic of Bollywood.

  • Bombay Dreams2
    Bombay Dreams Judith van Praag Mark your calendars for Bollywood is coming to town! Seattle's 5th Avenue Theatre is the final stop on the National Tour of "Bombay Dreams". Entranced by the allure of Bollywood movies and the music of celebrated Indian composer A.R. Rahman (The Lord of the Rings: The Musical) filmmaker Shekhar Kapur and Andrew Lloyd Webber came up with the idea of a Bolllywood based musical. Bollywood is the epicenter of the thriving South Asian film industry, India's answer to Hollywood. Bollywood films already show the elements of a musical: song and dance. But Bollywood films offer more than that; they are extravaganzas complete with comedy and daredevil thrills. The plots are usually melodramatic and frequently employ familiar story lines such as: star-crossed lovers, angry meddling parents, love triangles and conniving villains. "Bombay Dreams" tells the story of Akaash (Sachin Bhatt – known for The Asian/European tour of West Side Story, Aida at the Gateway Playhouse), a handsome young tour guide from the slums of Bombay who dreams of becoming the next Bollywood star, the object of his desire Priya (Reshma Shetty – known for West Side Story, La Boheme, Don Giovanni) and all the complications that arise when Akaash faces fame, fortune, and the obligations to his family, friends and Paradise slum. The plot includes frequent reference to the city's change of name from Bombay to Mumbai, as well as the accompanying identity issues. This musical journey within "Bombay Dreams" is an exploration of the importance of cultural heritage, the price of success, the bonds of friendship and the power of true love.

Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2005 To Harold Ashenfelter and Amul Desai Preface A crowded, red double-decker bus pulls into the depot and comes to a rest amidst swirling dust and smoke. Its passengers slowly alight and begin to disperse into the muggy evening air. I step down from the bus and look left and right, trying to get my bearings. This is only my second day in Bombay and my first to venture out of the old city center and into the Northern suburbs. I approach a small circle of bus drivers and ticket takers, all clad in loose-fitting brown shirts and pants. They point me in the direction of my destination, the JVPD grounds, and I join the ranks of people marching west along a dusty, narrowing road. Before long, we are met by a colorful procession of drummers and dancers honoring the goddess Durga through thundering music and vigorous dance. The procession is met with little more than a few indifferent glances by tired workers walking home after a long day and grueling commute.

Rahman releases a recording of the world premiere of The Flying Lotus on October 6, 2017. Commissioned by the Seattle Symphony and recorded live in concert, The Flying Lotus is Rahman’s first composition solely for orchestra and features Seattle Symphony’s Second Assistant Concertmaster Simon James as the violin soloist. “The Flying Lotus is a musical impression of where India was and where it’s going,” says Rahman in an interview with The Seattle Times. “India is very progressive now. People are in such a very strong kind of mood. I thought I should capture musically those feelings of elation and also helplessness in a way. How can you say that musically, and also with a sense of pride in it? It’s hard to explain in words, but I thought music could communicate those emotions.” The Flying Lotus was commissioned for the Seattle Symphony’s ninth annual Celebrate Asia concert, held on May 12, 2017. This cultural celebration is now a signature event in Seattle, presented in partnership with local Asian leaders from the region’s Chinese, Filipino, Indian, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Thai and Vietnamese communities.

  • Vice President, SMAA. Class of 1985 [email protected]
    November 2015 Editorial Not since the second world war has one country affected so many others. The boiling cauldron that is Syria today has become a proxy battlefield: Russia supporting Assad, USA supporting the opposition, IS making inroads with support from within Saudi Arabia, and the Kurds being bombed by Turkey on the pretext of anti-IS operations. The horrific attacks in Paris last week seem to be a prelude of things to come. Germany stepped up honourably to welcome refugees, but after this, political will suspicion by the local population in western Europe may halt the influx, thus stranding those who need help the most. Mr. Modi, after a year and a half in office, has done an admirable job of marketing India (and himself) overseas. Rock-star style adulation welcomes him at every venue. Some of his policies at home certainly don’t build confidence. This Editor, for one, believes that government should be kept out of the kitchen and out of the bedroom. Focus should be on infrastructure and governance, not rabble-rousing. Unfortunately for our country, the alternatives to Modi and the BJP (Laloo, Pappu, and their ilk) are simply unpalatable. Let’s hope the election manifesto of growth without corruption gets focus. Our Alma Mater completed it’s 150 year jubilee last year. That in itself is a tremendous achievement. Whether it is an organization, a company a school, or any institution for that matter, one and a half centuries is just great. Anywhere in the world. To survive and in fact thrive for so long, special qualities are needed.
