"The primary is to excite the spectators. If meaning playing Hamlet on a flying trapeze or in a aquarium, you do it."- Orson Welles
Humans have always craved entertainment, all forms of it. The Greeks indulged in stage plays. For them it was a way of catharsis, purgation release a all of the pent up emotions and frustration. Nevertheless, entertainment purifies our mind and soul and relaxes us. Picture this. After a tiring trip to work, we turn to music, films, TV shows etc. to refresh us and give us the essential peace of mind. It's how our body works and functions. For a while we must forget everything and lose ourselves into something that's not our personal life. Oahu is the high we crave and eventually we're back once again to being us. Generally, this high makes sure our sanity is intact and that people are rejuvenated before facing another trying day. Indian comedian
Music Plays or musicals since they are popularly known today have existed since ancient times. It was just in the 19th century they gained considerable momentum. In more recent times, music plays have become a really pivotal part of art. They have the right level of drama and dialogues and a great playlist to break the monotony and keep the audience addicted to every word. The world's most famous theatre destination is Broadway, a block in Manhattan, New York famous for its par excellence music plays. Throughout the year, folks from throughout the world flock to the Broadway Theatre district to watch musicals. The absolute most famous Broadway musical ever is the Phantom of the Opera, a disturbing yet appealing love story or lack thereof between a deformed man and an aspiring actress. Then there is the musical rendition of the famous Walt Disney movie, The Lion King that roped in viewers from throughout the world.
Another kind of entertainment and art is comedy. Prevalent since ancient Greek and Roman times where it was considered very base, this art has evolved in to a full-fledged industry with fresh comedians emerging almost every day. Within the last decade, India saw the emergence of several TV shows promoting comedic talent in remote areas as well and giving them a platform to showcase their comic timing and sense of humour. In 2010 will see a rise in comedy shows in Ahmedabad. The Comedy Factory claims to create the very first comedy festival in Gujarat. With uber talented comedians like Kenny Sebastian, Vidya Desai, Preeti Das, Kanan Gill, Smit Pandya etc. they've, time and again, ensured to leave the audience in splits. For a powerful dose of funny, ensure they're on somewhere in the city. Theirs is the greatest comedy show in Ahmedabad, hands down. Kenny Sebastian
