  • Take Bhalo Lage

    Take Bhalo Lage

    Sujan Mukhopadhyay’S DON…TAKE BHALO LAGE Adaptation & Direction: Sujan Mukhopadhyay Group: Chetana, Kolkata Language: Bengali Duration: 2 hrs 25 mins The Play Renowned poet, theatre director, and actor Subhomoy Dutt, has been arrested for his outrageous comments against the state, and locked in custody with other petty convicts. Subhomoy transforms the jail into a stage and starts performing the story of the ‘Mad Knight’ Don Quixote, with all the jail inmates as performers. The prison cell metamorphoses into a space of eloquent metaphors and bizarre events of Don and his mate, Sancho. Adapted into a modern day situation, this musical carnival emerges with forms like Kirtan, Flamenco, Rabindranath’s song, Rock-N-Roll, Toppa and Western Classical. Director’s Note “To dream, the impossible dream”… has been the quest of Don Quixote, and his squire Sancho Panza. The play begins in a local prison, where a famous playwright, actor and poet, Subhamoy Dutt, is arrested for his illegal step towards the state through his propagandist play. I wish to study today’s terror and ill-tolerance in this “play within the play” through the local jail inmates, who are waiting for their verdict. Designed as an opera, this is a hard hitting musical, questioning our reality, and arguing our existence in the modern socio-cultural situation. The Director & Adapter Sujan Mukhopadhyay has acted in about 30 plays and written several scripts for theatre, television and cinema. He was awarded with Stagecraft award for Ghasiram Kotwal and Popular Viewer’s Choice Award for Don..Take Bhalo Lage. He has performed in Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad, Nagpur, Chennai and all the other cities of India, and major cities of the USA, Theatre Olympics in Agartala, and Bharat Rang Mahotsav.

  • Setting the Stage: a Materialist Semiotic Analysis Of

    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.

The recent convocation, where the Chancellor Shri Narendra Modi graced the occasion has energized the Univer- sity community, especially because this was the Acharya’s visit after 10 years.

    Bengal's Changing Cultural Scenario

    Bengal's Changing Cultural Scenario Swapan Mullick Fluctuations on the Bengali cultural scene can be bewildering. Tollygunge seemed irretrievably doomed even in the last years of Uttam Kumar. But one smash hit caused a freak revival and Calcutta's little Tollywood is now roaring with activity. As were the theatre groups-but fifteen years ago. Today, they look back on their glorious past or on stalwarts who have either left the scene or have lost their old charisma. The jatra-the open-air opera-has. on the other hand. turned into a thriving industry and drawn away talent from films and theatre. There was a time when the recording companies flourished. Now Bengali music. both as an art and industry, has fallen on hard times. The total picture is more confusing than is good for the cultural scene which once prided itself on its vitality. The confusion promises to persist as long as some crucial questions remain unanswered. How are good films to be made now that the State Government has withdrawn from direct production of feature films? (Its experiment proved too expensive; it yielded awards but fetched few other satisfying results). Why have theatre groups failed singularly in offering original plays or even pleasing audiences with their new productions? Is the two-way traffic between films and theatre a means of cross-fertilisation or simply a very practical method of individual survival? Why has fresh musical talent failed to appear on the horizon now that the ageing stars of the disc are beginning to look-and sound-a tired lot? The answers are not easy to find partly because public taste seems so difficult to assess.

Between the original conception and planning, and its final actualization, we have benefited from the contribution of innumerable persons, some of whom have even left and moved on in the interim. All persons who have worked for STQ on the matter in this issue have been acknowledged as ‘assistants’ on the contents page. Samik Bandyopadhyay has been closely involved with this issue, and with the larger Seagull project of documenting and disseminating theatre in Bengal, from the very beginning.
