Music jam

Rock on Maraa hopes to open the space to artistes

Maraa, a media collective and Guruskool are presenting “Sunday Jam”, an informal musician’s meet that is part of an on-going endeavour to support musicians. Every first Sunday of the month, music bands meet at Guruskool’s farm space in Nelamangala (about 33 km away from Bangalore city) to share, perform and jam. The event intends to build a culture of theatre into this space — a space for short performances of self-written texts, stories, ideas, concepts and improvisations.

Towards building an arts’ collective, Maraa hopes to open the space to dancers, painters, designers, carpenters, sculptors, writers and other kinds of artists to complement one another, collaborate, improvise, critique, share and learn. There is also an attempt to create an open forum to bridge distances between the audience and the artist through discussion and dialogue and also readings, talks and films on topics of your interests.

If you wish to perform, express, share, listen, watch, “Sunday Jam” is a space for self-devised performances that can last anywhere between five seconds and 15 minutes. We are also open to readings, talks and films on topics of interest. The second theatre jam is on November 2 at the Guruskool farm in Nelamangala farm at 12 noon. Performers can leave town from BMTC Bus stop, Platform 22 to the Nelamangala Bus stop at 10 a.m., where there is a bus every 10 minutes. Call 9880755875 or 9343763497, or email: info@maraa.in.
