"Maim Tuzo Upkari Hanv"
LIFE - for every Goan working in Dubai UAE is not easy. Every Goan Dubaikar
struggle for 12 hrs a day for 6 or 7 days a week, if 8 hrs by working 4 hrs
by travelling. Though, most of the Goan Dubaikar don't speak Konkani in
public like the Mangalore Dubaikar, but when they hear a Tiatr is to be
staged in Dubai every Goan Dubaikar gets excited and plans weeks in advance.
TI ART (kola) we call TIATR, every one cannot become an artist. One must
have the art to entertain (us) the non artist. The one who have art must
make the use of it from the heart and not for the sake of money.
It is very heartening to say an artist like Roseferns came to Dubai with his
non tasteful above named Tiatr. It was real shocking for jammed packed
audience at Al-Nasr Leisureland of Goan Dubaikar. The story of Tiatr is very
poorly written and directed. The songs had no charm and the comedy all
rubbish. Roseferns, a Centurian writer/director we never expected this from
you and in future please don't repeat. For the love of Konkani you work and
for the sake of Goemkar write and direct something good. We all Goan
Dubaikar come to spend some time watching your shows and get entertained. We
want to return home with cheerful faces and not with black faces.
The organizers also must have an ART, for this Tiatr the organizers were not
professionals. For most of the Tiatr's we see the same organizers, I do not
know why they do not improve their ART. For every Tiatr the audience
complains and shouts to improve sound system. The Stage was poorly set. Even
for a Childs play will not have such poor Curtain setting - a complete
disgrace. All susegad Dubai Goemkar watched this patiently.
I call all Tiatrist and all Organizers. It's not only money but also the
time cost is more for us to attend a Tiatr in Dubai. You come all the way
from Goa so come up with some good shows. We need entertainment. We cannot
forget the writer director's like C. Alvares, M Boyer, Fr. Freddy J D'Costa
etc.. they gave value for money and time.
