I am associated with theatre group Version One Dot Oh! in short VODO in bangalore. We have staged so far 8 plays in Bangalore. On december 22nd we set off to Dharwar to stage 2 palys there.What an awesome trip it was. The entire group is filled with lotz of zeaaaaaaaaal. We left bangalore at 9.30 by the ajmer express. Had a good gala time in the train. Reached Dharwar Railway Station at 7 Am the next day. We were put up at the Working Womens Hostel at the KarnatakaUniversity. We unloaded the luggage, fresehned up and set off to have BreakFast. Wonderful breakfast it was - uppittu and IdlyVada. Our next task was to do some publicity for our shows. We selected few colleges and few other places for the same. I reached SDM Medical college where i met few doctors and managed to sell few tickets there. In the noon set off to SDM dental College (Very Good Chicks!!!) and could sell few more tickets. Having finished some publicty in the colleges reached our accomodation. Then we set off to the Theatre where we were supposed to perform. We did publicty in and around the theatre for there were few student hostels, so we took that oppurtunity to do the publicity. It was 9 PM and all of our guyz were feeling very hungry so had very good dinner at the Meals Corner near the theatre. We went back to our hostel to have a good sleep. Got up in the morning. One of the crew members got an urgent call from home so he had to leave. We felt that it was more important for him to be at bangalore than with us. We went to the theatre afetr having the breakfast. It was time for us to set the stage for the evening show. What an amazing sets we made. Its a result of amazing teamwork by us. We didnt know how time passed off. It was almost the show time. Everybody was busy. the cast members with their makeup, production team with the backstage. Finally the show had begun at 7.30 PM. What an amzing show it was. The talent exhiobited by our guyz was sipmply superb. People who turned for the show really enjoyed the show to their best. The show was over by 8 PM. It was time for us to celebrate the birthday of Priya (One of our team members). Did the cake cutting, had our dinner. Afetr we reached the hostel where we put up we had a rocking party. Again its time for us to sleep since we had to perform one more show the next day. Even the next day also we didnt know how soon it passed off...since everybody was busy with their work..few people practicing their lines, others busy with sets, then makeup etc. We had one more superb performance. The show was over by 9 PM. Since we were suppsoed to leave by teh 10.30 PM bus, we had to pack up our stuff get load the entire luggage etc. Finally we reached the bus well before time, boarded it. And we set off to bangalore.
Though the description above was plain we had ana amazing trip. There are many things we will be nostalgic about. Few points to take home - Teamwork displayed by the entire crew was simply superb. The enthu filled among the team was amazing. Looks like we guyz can achieve anything under the sky. Overall it was a nice memorable trip.
