With an aim to boost traditional art and culture forms in Goa, the State Government has set up multiple centres like the Kala Academy in Panjim and Ravindra Bhavan in various taluka places. One such art form is the tiatr. These cultural centres are a lifeline for hundreds of tiatr artistes in the State, who get to stage their work and earn a livelihood out of it. Unfortunately, this popular art form is dying a slow death in Goa as the artistes are deprived from using these facilities, either due to their prolonged closure for maintenance or malfunctioning facilities like the sound systems. In some instances, portions of the Ravindra Bhavan complex have been converted into government offices. MARCOS GONSALVES finds out how government apathy is finishing this already fledging art form in Goa, which ironically is gaining prominence in the UK and other parts of the world
