No Movement Without Rhythm NMWR Podcast

Talking theatre, music, collective creative processes and (the lack of) relevance with some of the cool peeps of the Chennai-based theatre collective, Perch. 

Listen to Abhay, Anushka, Rency, Sachin, Vinod and Vedant making almost continuous fun of us while sharing juicy bits of wisdom disguised as irreverence. Big thanks for giving us some firebomb tracks, laughs and the BEST podcast ever. 

P.S- This over-ambitious recording was put together remotely from Chennai, Pondicherry, Bangalore and Delhi. Booyah.
