Literally speaking

If you have a thing about captivating stories, moving poetry and inspiring real-life accounts, here comes The Soul Stage to light up your creative spirits. On March 24 and 25, The Courtyard at Elante Mall  will turn into a literary arena where some of the country’s most loved poets, storytellers and performing artistes will weave magic with their voices and words to transport you to an altogether different world.

The participants include renowned theatre personality Roshan Abbas, actor and storyteller Gaurav Kapur, casting director and storyteller Tess Joseph and poet-singer Swanand Kirkire, among others.

Speaking about the initiative, Roshan Abbas, director and founder, Kommune which is collaborating with Elante for this event, said, “We were pleasantly surprised when the management at Elante Mall approached us with a proposal to organise. The Soul Stage is a platform where achievers narrate their experiences and share aspects of their lives which people can relate to.”

Kommune, which was started as a collective by Roshan Abbas, Gaurav Kapur and Ankur Tewari, is an organisation of artistes, producers, patrons, collaborators and art lovers who want to discover and nurture creative performance and artistic ideas.

Engaging the burgeoning spoken word community from around the globe, The Soul Stage will have art, music, poetry, food and everything else that you may expect from a well-curated festival at Elante.
