First Children's Tiatr Festival 2010

A FOND TRIBUTE - Rosary Menino Fernandes

A FOND TRIBUTE

Time To Shower Praises, but Death Bells Toiled.....


Yesterday just as I was reaching the office, my mobile range. The call was from an unknown landline.
I commenced with a ‘Hello’.


“LinoBab, did you get the news”


“About what?”, recognizing the familiar voice, I retorted.


“Rosary Ferns is no more, he suffered a massive heart attack”, for a minute, I felt still. Sensing a silence from my end, he continued “I myself could not believe it. That’s why after checking with a few others and confirming this news, I thought to inform you about it”.


For a few moments I felt as if I was lost! My mind raced towards Rosary Ferns..... Our friendship was simple. Wherever our paths crossed and we met at some public squares, we always communicated amongst us joyfully. That’s only was our friendly relationship. But his thought provoking tiatr writings and direction was always high in my mind. He was always seen as a great singer, tiatr writer, director and stage artiste.

That’s exactly the reason, his last tiatr presentation ‘Kuwait Soddun Vetana’ which has created history in Kuwait was attended by me on three different occasions enthusiastically. When the Mangalorean community staged the show for the second time, Konkan Kala Samithi-Kuwait organized the tiatr script and re-wrote it in the Kanada format by Lancy Rodrigues, Bondel, under the direction of Rosary Ferns and well supported by prominent artistes. I wrote a review in my weekly Konkani presentation for goa-world.com ‘Aitaracheo Katkutleo” section {now archived at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/gulf-goans/message/26106}


Rosary’s works have been well recognized and appreciated by people from other Indian states as well. His well-acclaimed drama “Kuwait Soddun Vetana” was staged by Kuwait Canara Welfare Association for the third time and the Konkani speaking community (embracing) the Kanada script.  Not only this, recently Konkan Kala Samithi-Kuwait has also done an excellent DVD presentation which I have seen.
While I intended to do a small article on such an effort and focusing on this DVD, the news conveyed to me by my friend about Rosary’s sudden demise, sounded as if the church bells ringing in my ears!


One of the strongest pillar of the Konkani stage has collapsed.
21 Tiatr (Dramas) have been written and staged and scores of songs on CD and VCD are produced by him. But one of his creative composition in the form of a Mando titled “Mogan Tujea Lasotam” (Am in Love with You), in my opinion and memory will last forever, sung with Veeam Bond Braganza.


Almighty Father! Our solemn prayers to grant our friend eternal rest in your Heavenly Abode.
I, together with the goa-world.com team, convey our deepest condolences to late RosaryFerns’ family.
