Devised by Omkar Bhatkar

‘BODIES THAT MATTER’ is a devised piece by Omkar Bhatkar dealing with the notions of bodies that do exist in society. Bodies that do matter and yet how are they often mistreated, misrepresented and more than often unrecognized by the popular media and culture. This devised theatre piece stitches classic and contemporary poems on such different kinds of bodies to portray that, they do exist and they do matter. Bodies that Matter is an experiential reality brought to stage with verse, voice and movements. The play makes extensive use of the performer’s body, thus making them push the boundaries of everyday life and realize the sublime body.
