  • Between Violence and Democracy: Bengali Theatre 1965–75
    BETWEEN VIOLENCE AND DEMOCRACY / Sudeshna Banerjee / 1 BETWEEN VIOLENCE AND DEMOCRACY: BENGALI THEATRE 1965–75 SUDESHNA BANERJEE 1 The roots of representation of violence in Bengali theatre can be traced back to the tortuous strands of socio-political events that took place during the 1940s, virtually the last phase of British rule in India. While negotiations between the British, the Congress and the Muslim League were pushing the country towards a painful freedom, accompanied by widespread communal violence and an equally tragic Partition, with Bengal and Punjab bearing, perhaps, the worst brunt of it all; the INA release movement, the RIN Mutiny in 1945-46, numerous strikes, and armed peasant uprisings—Tebhaga in Bengal, Punnapra-Vayalar in Travancore and Telengana revolt in Hyderabad—had underscored the potency of popular movements. The Left-oriented, educated middle class including a large body of students, poets, writers, painters, playwrights and actors in Bengal became actively involved in popular movements, upholding the cause of and fighting for the marginalized and the downtrodden. The strong Left consciousness, though hardly reflected in electoral politics, emerged as a weapon to counter State violence and repression unleashed against the Left. A glance at a chronology of events from October 1947 to 1950 reflects a series of violent repressive measures including indiscriminate firing (even within the prisons) that Left movements faced all over the state. The history of post–1964 West Bengal is ridden by contradictions in the manifestation of the Left in representative politics. The complications and contradictions that came to dominate politics in West Bengal through the 1960s and ’70s came to a restive lull with the Left Front coming to power in 1977.

  • Setting the Stage: a Materialist Semiotic Analysis Of
    SETTING THE STAGE: A MATERIALIST SEMIOTIC ANALYSIS OF CONTEMPORARY BENGALI GROUP THEATRE FROM KOLKATA, INDIA by ARNAB BANERJI (Under the Direction of Farley Richmond) ABSTRACT This dissertation studies select performance examples from various group theatre companies in Kolkata, India during a fieldwork conducted in Kolkata between August 2012 and July 2013 using the materialist semiotic performance analysis. Research into Bengali group theatre has overlooked the effect of the conditions of production and reception on meaning making in theatre. Extant research focuses on the history of the group theatre, individuals, groups, and the socially conscious and political nature of this theatre. The unique nature of this theatre culture (or any other theatre culture) can only be understood fully if the conditions within which such theatre is produced and received studied along with the performance event itself. This dissertation is an attempt to fill this lacuna in Bengali group theatre scholarship. Materialist semiotic performance analysis serves as the theoretical framework for this study. The materialist semiotic performance analysis is a theoretical tool that examines the theatre event by locating it within definite material conditions of production and reception like organization, funding, training, availability of spaces and the public discourse on theatre. The data presented in this dissertation was gathered in Kolkata using: auto-ethnography, participant observation, sample survey, and archival research. The conditions of production and reception are each examined and presented in isolation followed by case studies. The case studies bring the elements studied in the preceding section together to demonstrate how they function together in a performance event. The studies represent the vast array of theatre in Kolkata and allow the findings from the second part of the dissertation to be tested across a variety of conditions of production and reception.

Southeast Review of Asian Studies Volume 34 (2012), pp. 222–30 Rehearsals for a Revolution: The Political Theater of Utpal Dutt ARNAB BANERJI University of Georgia During the mid-1960s, when communist politics were beginning to gain significant ground in Bengal, the playwright, actor, and director Utpal Dutt উৎপল দত্ত (1924–93) experimented with theatrical forms in the hope of creating a political theater and fomenting a proletarian social revolution. This essay examines his concept of the “revolutionary theater” and its underlying elements, which include traditional forms of theater like jatra and both Piscatorian and Brechtian techniques. Utpal Dutt উৎপল দত্ত (1924–93) is one of the best known and most respected figures in the history of modern Bengali theater. A committed leftist, Dutt wrote, directed, and acted in commercially successful and politically challenging plays during a career of nearly fifty years from the early 1940s until his death in 1993.

  • Actresses on Bengali Stage—Nati Binodini and Moyna: the Present Re-Imagines the Past
    Actresses on Bengali Stage—Nati Binodini and Moyna: the Present Re-imagines the Past Madhumita Roy and Debmalya Das. Visva Bharati, Santiniketan. India. Abstract The Bengal Renaissance ushered in the process of multifaceted modernization resulting in the major reshaping of the theatrical space both in terms of convention and praxis. Abandoning the convention of cross–dressing (where the earlier male actors were dressed as women to represent female characters), this new theatrical space began to accommodate the women actors for the representation of female characters. Parallel with the emergence of the “New Woman” in the upper middle class society of the nineteenth century, the women actors also constituted a segregated sphere of the emancipated women. Although “free” to encounter the public sphere, they were denied the degree of social acceptability/status that was otherwise available to the then upper middle class “New Women.” This paper tries to locate the experience of a female actor of nineteenth century: Binodini Dasi: as is rendered in her two short autobiographical writings and the re-imagination of that experience in the twentieth century play Tiner Taloar by Utpal Dutt. Dutt uses the historical material to explore the consolidation and redefinition of the feminine space in his contemporary theatre. [Keywords: theatre, actress, performance, prostitution, protest, commodification, liberty.] The Bengal Renaissance ushered in the process of multifaceted modernization resulting in the major reshaping of the theatrical space both in terms of convention and praxis.

    www.TLHjournal.com Literary Herald ISSN: 2454-3365 UGC-Approved Journal An International Refereed English e-Journal Impact Factor: 2.24 (IIJIF) IPTA and National Identity: History, Theatre and a Culture of Touring Dr Samipendra Banerjee Assistant Professor Department of English University of Gour Banga Malda, West Bengal Abstract: Over the past decades there has been a growing interest in the historiography of Modern Indian Theatre. This paper is an attempt to focus on one of the most dynamic moments in the history of Modern Indian Theatre, the emergence of the Indian People‘s Theatre Association. The formation of IPTA in 1943 is an event of immense historical significance that needs greater critical inquiry. I attempt a review of the history of the IPTA with a focus on its theatre and show how the IPTA in its activist stance towards anti-colonial rule was also a key factor in imagining an emerging nation. IPTA‘s diverse theatrical oeuvre, including plays like Sambhu Mitra‘s Nabanna was instrumental in the construction of national identity. I also argue that despite its organizational decentralization, IPTA‘s role in the imagining of the nation became possible because of a crucial ploy of ‗touring‘, what I refer to as a ‗culture of touring‘. Keywords: IPTA, Modern Indian Theatre, historiography, National Identity, Nabanna, Culture of Touring. With the achievement of political independence in 1947 and the end of British rule, India stepped on to a phase of massive reconstruction of the nation. This was a project of asserting an identity, of simultaneous reconstruction and deconstruction, of decolonization and a rising postcolonial practice in various ways.

  • Brechtian Adaptations in Bengali Group Theatre: Nuances and Controversies
    ISSN 2319-5339 IISUniv.J.A. Vol.4(1), 1-10 (2015) Brechtian Adaptations in Bengali Group Theatre: Nuances and Controversies Sib Sankar Abstract Adaptations of Foreign plays in the native tongue had been one of the most contentious issues which concerned Bengali theatre during the last half of the previous centuries even though such adaptations have always been an integral part of its colonial legacy. During the last five decades of the previous century, almost all the major plays of Brecht have been performed in Bengal and by and large the Bengali (alternative) theatre spectators have evinced a remarkable interest in the Brechtian productions. But, rather surprisingly, even by the end of the previous century, Bengali theatre practitioners could not evolve a set of workable principles/methodologies which would appeal to the idiosyncratic ‘taste’ of the native spectators without violating the fundamentals of ‘Dialectical/ Epic Theatre’. In the following few pages of this article, I would like to devote my attention into exploring the issues and concerns regarding the adaptation of Bertolt Brecht’s plays in Bengal. Keywords : adaptation, Dialectical/Epic theatre, native/foreign, familiarization It is very difficult to translate Brecht and make him a success in this country, as people have found out repeatedly. It cannot be otherwise… Utpal Dutt 2009, 24 I think the right approach to adapt Brecht to different peoples of different countries. But to do this, one has to make changes, alteration, even additions to Brecht… Shekhar Chatterjee 1982, 142 Adaptation of foreign language plays in Bengali theatre is a phenomenon which is inextricably linked with it from the time of its inception.
