The technician is science fiction play that attempts to answer the question Your lives are controlled by someone. The play is based on thought recording and reproduction device that gives you ability to access somebody’s thoughts. Inspired by Luigi Pirandello and his 'Six Characters in Search of an Author', The Technician focuses on characters broken out of their 'scene' by a stage lighting change instigated by the mysterious technician  running the show.

The technician is thus scientific and philosophical, physical and illusive, all the same time. The play makes used the unique elements of illusions, while incorporating the music and body movements of the characters and characters into structure and performance. It is a complex metaphor for the
expression of the theatre.

The set is symbolic and illusive that no one can define where they are actually. Lights is like the heart beats of the characters. And movements and music is incorporated properly from start to end. But the biggest responsibilities lies with the actors to bring to the surface the underlying tensions and conflicts generated by the simultaneous presence of the reality and falsehood in the mind.

Here, the characters experience the theatrical devices and gets completely surprised by the magic of lights and music arrangements. The performance reflects the process of discovering oneself, and the same time, making contact with theatrical devices.  

Watch this play to know the fundamentals of theatre!

I wanted to write a theater piece since so long, but i was not getting the proper subject in my mind. Being a techno savvy artist finally I decided to write something on technical device. In the way of research I came across thought recording and reproduction device. After a bit of discussion with
field experts finally I dared to write a science fiction play.

I don’t read too much but I am influenced by Hollywood cinema and i always looking forward to create something beyond imagination. In the starting phase i faced lot of problems in writing a play. I did some research to know more about different kinds of structures. during the research i came across illusions and illusive writings which was kind of my type of writing. Then i tried to create illusion through two character’s paradoxical views and situations. I pre-vizulize the scene with the flow of music, because music inspires me to write and design the scene, eventually i started composing and arranging music.

I have great faith in my script, I hope this play will change your perception about theatre!

                                 Those who want to watch this play, drop me a message.
