I was reading the book when the curtain rise and happened to read the list of
tiatr personalities and found my name missing from the list. One will wonder
what I am trying to say. I am not a professional artist but comparing the names
of some over there I was amused that I had more experience on the professional
stage as an actor, director, writer than some of those. I began my stage life
in 1979 with my own play "Don roste" written and directed by me. Then I acted
for Fr.Freddy da Costa since May 1980 till the end. I wrote staged and directed
Somzikai for Kala Academy tiatr festival in 1984 and won the second prize .I
staged the same tiatr in Siolim, Verem, Aldona . I staged my own tiatr nirmon
with professionals in Saligao, Siolim, Tirakol, Agacaim. I have acted in Mike
Mehta's grant Road and o papagio canta e berra on professional Stage. I won the
second prize for Mummy maka vengent dor in 2007 in the Goa Academy competition
and the same tiatr was staged in London ( four shows) in 2009 and a CD was made
of the same tiatr and sold in London. Albert de Souza
