The META awards are not new for Jino whose play Mathi, under the banner of Malayala Kalanilayam, Koothuparamba, had won four awards in 2015. The play has been short-listed for Kerala Sangeetha Nataka Akademi’s competition and will be staged in Thrissur on May 3. A three-month-long theatre camp was conducted during which the theme was decided based on discussions with actors and friends,” says Jino.
