Shuffled is a solo performance by Anish Victor

FRAGMENTS TO FORM

A four hour masterclass on building performance drawing from personal histories.

Every life carries raw material for a performance — memories, choices, half-said things, spaces we’ve never quite left. The masterclass is a hands-on introduction to a process for finding that material, understanding what it is about, and beginning to shape it into an offer.

The masterclass draws directly on the process behind Shuffled, a solo show — each participant will experience a distilled version of the process, not just the product.

🗓️ Oct 5 | 6 to 10 PM
📍Blue Collar Collective, Kakkanad, Kochi

If you’re in or around any of these cities, come spend an evening with Shuffled — and perhaps leave with a few questions about how much of our lives we really get to choose. taken in Kerala, India by @shuffledforlife

Watching 'Shuffled' was heavy. The Bangalore-based theatre practitioner Anish Victor's solo is not for the casual viewer. And its not the kind of entertainment that lightly lights up your evening. Its heaviness, though, is casually cloaked with layers of lilting music, engaging card games and light-hearted jokes handed out by Anish while effortlessly switching between the lilting melodies and flashing blades of realities that strike at your deepest core.

I could not sleep the night I watched the first show of 'Shuffled' at Walden Pond House, Irinjalakuda. Later, Anish said he too could not, after the first show. At the next show, at Studio Fawn Tierra, I disconnected purposely. Otherwise I won't survive it, I knew.

I had met Anish almost eleven years ago. In 2015. When he was travelling with 'Koogu, ' another solo which also he staged at Walden Pond House. Then he said he would like to do another show at my parents' home, Pournami, where Rajan (Rajan M Krishnan, the late visual artist who was my life partner) was convalescing after suffering a debilitating cerebral haemmorrage which left his left side partially paralysed. He was just 47.

Anish performed 'Koogu' just for Rajan, on the terrace of 'Pournami, ' the home my father, K. V. Ramanathan, one of Kerala's leading children's writers, had built. A few months later, on February 11, 2016 Rajan left this world. Some weeks later, I discovered a paper on which Rajan had scribbled a poem, and a few words about Anish, and about the short exchage they had about one of Rajan's paintings, 'Departure. ' That same day, I received an email from Anish requesting he wished to visit me, and that he wished to dedicate the next show of 'Koogu' to Rajan. I sent him Rajan's words. Later that year, Anish presented the 100th show of 'Koogu' at the Retrospective of Rajan's works held by Vibhuraj Kapoor at Gallery Beyond, in Mumbai.

'Pournami' means 'Full Moon. ' It was a Full Moon day when 'Shuffled' was staged at Walden Pond House. by @shuffledforlife

The Bangalore-based performer Anish Victor's solo performance, 'Shuffled, ' started its Kerala tour from Walden Pond House, Irinjalakuda. Drawing from the artiste's personal life, his mother's life journey and her death, interspersed with references to the tribal way of life, the notion of 'free will, ' of choices, and memories, personal blending into the public, 'Shuffled, ' as the name suggests has a lot to do with card tricks.

What is shuffled? Just a deck of cards? Or life itself?

Sometimes we don't have the answers. Sometimes, the question itself becomes the answer.

'Shuffled' continues its Kerala journey on October 3, at Aal Studio Space, Ernakulam, and on October 4, at Blue Collar Collective, Ernakulam. by @shuffledforlife
