His father, Mr. Raghunath Karnad, was a Medical Officer in the Sassoon Hospital, Pune. Karnad was first admitted to Tarabai Modak School and later on he joined Modern High School, Pune. The members of his family speak Marathi though their mother tongue is Kannada. Girish speaks more than five languages. As a child, he listened to fairy tales and stories from the Puranas. His parents were fond of drama. In his village, Sirsi, in the Western Ghats of Karnataka State, strolling group of players called Natak Mandalies or Natak Companies would arrive, set up a stage, present a few plays for a couple of months and then move on to other villages. That was in the late 1940s. Karnad got an opportunity to watch a number of traditional Yakshagana performances when he was very young. His father saw an Urdu version of Othello in 1905 and introduced Girish to Urdu plays. His mother sometimes imitated the acting of Balagandharva at home. Karnad's encounter with the Natak Mandalies at an early age made an everlasting impression on his mind. During his school days, he acted in Kannada plays. He loved farcical plays in those days. Initially, it was his desire to be a poet. During his teens, he wrote poetry in Kannada and English. After his high school education, Karnad joined Karnataka University, Dharwad in 1953. During his college life, he was intensely impressed by the late A. K. Ramanujan, the well-known Indian poet. He taught Karnad the art of literary 52 writing and structure of poetry.

He was amazed to see Strindberg's Miss Julie directed by the brilliant young Ebrahim Alkazi. About the performance, Karnad ( 1999:22 ) says : fVhat impressed me as much as the psychological cannibalism of the play was the way lights faded in and out on stage with the instruments called dimmers. That evening...! decided to be a playwright. In 1960 he received the prestigious Rhodes Scholarship which enabled him to go to England to complete his Master's degree. During his stay at Magdalen College, Oxford, Karnad took interest in arts and cultural activities. He saw many plays in England and got fully acquainted with the theatre. He completed his postgraduation with Philosophy, 53 Politics and Economics as primary subjects. He returned to India in 1963 and joined Oxford University Press, Chennai, as its Assistant Manager and then its Manager till 1970. The job gave him an opportunity to read various kinds of writings.

  • 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.

  • Evolution of Street Theatre As a Tool of Political Communication Sangita

Street theatre with its political sharpness left a crucial effect among the working class people in many corner of the world with the different political circumstances. In India a paradigm shift from proscenium theatre to the theatre of the streets was initiated by the anti-fascist movement of communist party of India under the canopy of Indian People’s Theatre Association (IPTA). In North India Street theatre was flourished by Jana Natya Manch (JANAM) with the leadership of Safdar Hashmi. This paper will explore the background of street theatre in India and its role in political communication with special reference to historical and analytical study of the role of IPTA, JANAM etc. Keywords: Street Theatre, Brecht, Theatre of the Oppressed, Communist Party of India (CPI), IPTA, JANAM, Safdar Hashmi, Utpal Dutta. Introduction Scholars divided the history of theatre forms into the pre-Christian era and Christian era. Aristotle’s view about the structure of theatre was based on Greek tragedy. According to the scholar Alice Lovelace “He conceived of a theatre to carry the world view and moral values of those in power, investing their language and symbols with authority and acceptance. Leaving the masses (parties to the conflict) to take on the passive role of audience...........The people watch and through the emotions of pity & grief, suffer with him.” Bertolt Brecht expressed strong disagreement with the Aristotelian concept of catharsis.

  • S Play: a Case of Clairvoyance Or Executing Miss K
    Godava and Shruti’s Play: A Case of Clairvoyance or Executing Miss K Dramaturge: Godavar & Shruti Director: Shruti Group: NSD Student Diploma Production, New Delhi Lang: Hindi Duration: 1 hr The Play K, a gender queer writer living a reclusive life with his brother, is visited one evening by two police officers. In the Kafkaesque interrogation that follows, K finds that the police has resorted to Orwellian measures – it has hacked K’s Wog to discover their whereabouts. The subsequent interrogation is an attempt to determine the connection between K’s stories and two murders, although other motivations flit around like shadows telling their own tales – and foretelling K’s destiny. A Case of Clairvoyance or Executing Miss K is a sketch of the questions that need to be asked, rather than those asked – and perhaps answered during K’s interrogation. Questions also surface from the palimpsest of memories unravelled through the interrogation and K’s stories. The play is presented as a dystopian drama inspired by Martin McDonagh’s The Pillowman, Franz Kafka’s The Trial, the works of Jorge Luis Borges, and colloquial folk narratives, besides drawing from the vast pools of real life incidents. Its production also digs deep into various traditions of storytelling thus paying homage to a long, rich literary history. Director’s Note The title of this play is a reverent salaam to the various tropes and traditions that have enriched and informed our worldview and gone a long way in lending flesh and blood to the characters whose lives we trace through our play.
