ANNIE QUADROS.
By Wellington Dias.

Annie Quadros, who hails from Calata - Majorda married at Sanvordem with a kid, recalls that during her School days
She used to take part in plays and remembers first acting in R. Moraes's dramas "Darun Ostori" and "Dhott" (She mentioned
that in those days they used to stage 2-shows at one time).

After that, Annie mentioned acting for Patrick Dourado and other directors, which include 10-years each for Prince Jacob and
Roseferns and it seems that initially She used to do serious (fighting) roles but now prefers to play sentimental roles.

Another thing of note that Annie recalls is that in the past the artistes at times due to conflicts with the directors used to
desert dramas halfway and recalled of her replacing others at times even in emergency cases and remembered Pascoal Rodrigues' drama "Rozar", wherein the show was scheduled to commence at 03:30 p.m. and with one of the artistes' not turning up, it seems the audience started to become restless and even threatening to pelt eggs if the show did not commence and finally it seems that Annie was used as a replacement and mentioned about excelling in the role. She also mentioned about filling in for John Claro's tiatr "Portugez Kolvonnt".

Besides acting in dramas for various directors, Annie mentioned about acting in tiatras directed by the late C. Alvares, Star of Curtorim, Wilmix Sharon, Kamat de Assolna and others.

Annie considers her roles in Prince Jacob's "Prachit", Roserferns' "Arso" and Chris Meena's "Moji Nitt Korat", as her best, so far.

Annie to her credit has produced one audio album entitled "Axxea" in which Prince Jacob, Mario Menezes, Betty Naz, Peter Roshan have lent their vocals and according to her, sales of this album were quite good.

When queried on her future plans, Annnie mentioned that She has a dream of  staging only 1-show of her own, before calling it a day in acting.
