Yes But Why Podcast

This week on Yes But Why, I speak with performer and arts organizer, Anisha Pucadyil. Anisha Pucadyil is an Improviser and Playback theatre performance artist with citylamps and True Heart Theatre. Anisha’s earliest connection to the Arts was through school choir and college theater. Inspired by her mother, Anisha is committed to infusing the Arts into organizations for children and young adults. She has been working toward that goal for over a decade. It wasn’t until the pandemic pushed the Arts online that she found improv and playback theater. Originally from India, Anisha is now currently transitioning her artistic life to her new home in the UK. She is part of Citylamps playback theatre in Bangalore as part of their zoomprov team; and she performs with True Heart Theatre, a playback theater in London. In our chat, Anisha tells me about how her mother taught her to connect with culture and history through the Arts. She talks about her mom’s passion for theater and examining “how your heritage affects you.
