Remembering Tiatr Artistes of Yester years

‘Somplelea Tiatristancho Ugddas’, the monthly programme of Tiatr Academy of Goa (TAG) held on 11^th April 2012 at 4:45 pm at Black Box, Ravindra Bhavan, Margao Goa. The artistes of tiatr stage who were born in the month of April and who are no more living were remembered in the programme. These artistes are Jacinto Vaz, A.S.Conception, Nelson Afonso, Champion Alvares, Fidelis Fernandes, William de Curtorim, Thomas Coogan and Souza Boy.

Jacinto Vaz was one of the best comedians of the Konkani tiatr stage. He earned the nick name ‘Charlie Chaplin’ on account of his brilliant acting in comedy roles. He was also a very good playwright, director and singer.

A.S.Conception was a great ‘character artiste’. He highly entertained the audiences with his impressive acting and singing. Being a part of the famous trio ‘Anthony-Nelson-Conception’, he achieved great fame and their trios kept Goans alert and vigilant on critical issues.

Nelson Afonso was a very good script writer, director, lyricist, and singer. He created history by introducing the ‘Revolving Stage’ in his much acclaimed tiatr ‘Dolorosa’.

Champion Alvares was a script writer, director, lyricist, singer and fine actor. He acted in comedy roles as well as performed female roles with great ability. He is particularly known for composing and singing folk-songs which truly enriched Goan culture.

Fidelis Fernandes was a well-known musician of the Konkani tiatr stage. He was a trumpet player and contributed immensely to the development of Konkani Song and Music by playing excellent music in several tiatrs.

William de Curtorim was a popular writer, director, lyricist, and singer. He was known by people as ‘Jet Speed Singer’. He was a bold and fearless singer who exposed hypocrisy, corruption and nepotism through his political songs, due to which he was extremely popular among the masses.

Thomas Coogan was one of the best actors and singers of tiatr. He was also a good playwright. His speciality was that he enacted Hindu roles with great perfection and ease.

Goodbye Remmie Colaco

Remmie Colaco died on 22nd March 2012

I remember popular Remmie-Boyer comedy duets where M Boyer used to physically push Remmie to take his mic position and sang his own line and they did it each time they were called back

Remmie usually sang decent songs, even in comedy duets with M Boyer, his role was always as professional like doctor, engineer, empregado etc Boyer’s role being Cook, mechanic, drunkard etc

Source:Tiatr Academy

Tiatr Academy of Goa condoles the death of veteran tiatr artiste Remedious J. Colaco who was popularly known as Remmie Colaco. He expired in the wee hours of yesterday morning at Royal Hospital,Margao. Born on 19^th September 1925, Remmie Colaco enriched the tiatr stage not only by script writing, directing, acting, singing in tiatrs but he has also designed and executed stage setting in the tiatrs produced by him.

Remmie Colaco hails from Bepquegal, Curchorem Goa. He did his primary education in Konkani at the local church school where he also studied music under the guidance of Maestro Diago Rodrigues. This 87 years old versatile actor first started acting when he joined the Jolly Boys Groupe of Sewree who staged their drama ‘Bhagintlo Mog’ where he played the role of a female. He was spotted by Edward Almeida from Dobitalao, a famous tiatrist then. His career began when he was picked up by C.Alvares, J.P.Souzalin, Minguel Rod, Jacinto Vaz, Dioginho D’Melo, John Claro, M.Boyer and others.

As there were no female artistes then, Remmie Colaco used to play the lead roles of a female. Later on he himself started writing and directing his own plays. He has written and directed many tiatrs which have been well appreciated by the tiatr lovers. Some of the popular tiatrs written and directed by him are ‘Satvo Sacrament’, ‘Sukh Tarvotteanchem’, ‘Bhavponnacho Kaido’, ‘Chouto Mandament’, ‘Atam Konn Sukhi’, ‘Don Kallzam’, ‘Kiteak Upkarlem’, ‘Ghorachem Sukh’, ‘Mhozo Kunhead’ and ‘Ostoreancho Mog’.

Some of the tiatrs in which Remmie Colaco has excelled in various roles are ‘Bhagintlo Mog’, ‘Chintna Zalim Sopna’, ‘Kedna Udetolo to Dis’, ‘Saibinicheo Sat Dukhi’, ‘Ekuch Rosto’, ‘Utt Goenkara’ etc.

He was a good singer on the tiatr stage having sung songs in all above mentioned tiatrs besides showcasing his acting talent. He was better known for his songs on moral values. His most famous song ‘Ankvar Moriechem Dukh’ was selected as the best Konkani song at the All India Radio during the Portuguese era.

Remmie Colaco also sung on gramophone records (HMV) some of which are ‘Ankvar Moriechem Dukh’, ‘Maisun’, ‘Borim Follam’, ‘Bhav-Bhav’ and ‘Mog Utor Apurbaiechem’. He also produced an audio cassette namely ‘Ghorachem Sukh’.

He staged his tiatrs in East Africa and in the Gulf countries too. He won many awards for his contribution towards the upliftment of the Konkani language. The Goa Konkani Academy has published two of his plays ‘Ghorachem Sukh’ and ‘Atancho Temp’.

Remmie Colaco was conferred with the following awards:-

·He was felicitated by the Konkani Weekly Cine Times and Konkani Monthly Gulab.

· He was conferred with Goa State Cultural Award in 1991.

· He was also the recipient of the prestigious Dalgado Puroskar by Dalgado Konknni Akademi.

·He was conferred with Lifetime Contribution to Tiatr Stage Award in the year 2010 by Tiatr Academy of Goa.

TAG conveys its condolences to the bereaved family and prays to the almighty that his soul rests in peace.

When contacted, the family members stated that the funeral date will be announced later as one of his daughters has to come from Canada.

eg. Milagres de Chandor collected 110K, Roseferns 210K, Prince Jacob (inludes Bombay shows) 261K, Minin de Bandar sor far 115K and soon to come from Com. Agostin shows, Oldrin, Peter-Roshan, Pascoal Rod etc as the collection is till going on during their stage shows.

Fr. Conceissao also gave monetery help, so did Peter Figueredo 10K, Nilesh Cabral 25K etc TAG sponsored KA hall for the Show, where as Herald sponsored 16 large ads for the shows (info, as announced during the show by Bonny, her husband)

Antonette is one of the best stage actors and very good at tragedy roles I think she is a member of Minin de Bandar Tiatr team and also seen in many other tiatr

Video shooting was not allowed, announcements were made.
When I was doing my usual stuff, i was stopped twice but that did not stopped me..
Besides, many others were doing it see front row pic below

I don't blame them for stopping me, for they don't know who I am, if known, I would have even saved Rs.300 as photojournalists / mediamen get free entry and free special sitting area etc..
