Mysore/Mysuru: Theatre, apart from promoting harmony, co-existence and consistency, teaches us to be one among everyone, said former Rangayana Director H. Janardhan (Janni).

He was speaking on the topic ‘Expression,’ as a part of the 8-day ongoing ‘Ranga Samyukta – A lecture series on Theatre and Theatre Related Arts,’ jointly organised by the University of Mysore Fine Arts College, Sri Gubbi Veeranna Chair, Bharatiya Rangashikshana Kendra, Rangayana Mysuru and Karnataka State Dr. Gangubai Hangal Music and Performing Arts University at Rangayana in city yesterday.  

“All living beings have expression which is a birth right. Our Constitution has provided us with the Right to Expression. However, a few individuals have no idea of expression being one of their rights,” he said.

Stating that following the path of others was a sensitive issue, Janardhan said theatre develops sensitivity as it has no barriers when compared to other forms of art.
