About the Project

An old Actor-Clown, forgotten backstage after his Swan Song, reminisces about LIFE & ART!

In this SHOW after the last show, the Performance of a Lifetime unfolds unwittingly before an empty Theatre.

Interspersed are Characters from the BARD of Avon’s Genius; echoing the Creative Truth behind the Artistic Impulse.

Based on an idea by Anton Chekhov, this minimalist, layered portrayal begs the basic question: "When does LIFE end, and where does ART begin?

This SOLO performance, Conceived & Enacted by SALIM GHOUSE, opened to wonderful acclaim in 2013, and is travelling to various cities in India & abroad.
