  • 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.

  • Music, Partition and Ghatak Priyanka Shah
    Of roots and rootlessness: music, partition and Ghatak Priyanka Shah Vol. 3, No. 1, pp. 120–136 | ISSN 2050-487X | www.southasianist.ed.ac.uk www.southasianist.ed.ac.uk | ISSN 2050-487X | pg. 120 Vol. 3, No. 1, pp. 120–136 Of roots and rootlessness: music, partition and Ghatak Priyanka Shah Maulana Azad College, University of Calcutta, [email protected] At a time when the ‘commercial’ Bengali film directors were busy caricaturing the language and the mannerisms of the East-Bengal refugees, specifically in Calcutta, using them as nothing but mere butts of ridicule, Ritwik Ghatak’s films portrayed these ‘refugees’, who formed the lower middle class of the society, as essentially torn between a nostalgia for an utopian motherland and the traumatic present of the post-partition world of an apocalyptic stupor. Ghatak himself was a victim of the Partition of India in 1947. He had to leave his homeland for a life in Calcutta where for the rest of his life he could not rip off the label of being a ‘refugee’, which the natives of the ‘West’ Bengal had labelled upon the homeless East Bengal masses. The melancholic longing for the estranged homeland forms the basis of most of Ghatak’s films, especially the trilogy: Meghe Dhaka Tara (1960), Komol Gondhar (1960) and Subarnarekha (1961). Ghatak’s running obsession with the post-partition trauma acts as one of the predominant themes in the plots of his films. To bring out the tragedy of the situation more vividly, he deploys music and melodrama as essential tropes. Ghatak brilliantly juxtaposes different genres of music, from Indian Classical Music and Rabindra Sangeet to folk songs, to carve out the trauma of a soul striving for recognition in a new land while, at the same time, trying hard to cope with the loss of its ‘motherland’.

Article History: Submitted-27/09/2019, Revised-05/11/2019, Accepted-10/11/2019, Published-20/11/2019. Abstract: Modern Assamese theatre is basically amateur in nature and the permanent playhouses erected by various amateur theatre societies of Assam played the pivotal role in the development of western-style Assamese dramaturgy. Ban Theatre of Tezpur in the Sonitpur district of Assam occupied the central place in the development of modern Assamese theatre. The playhouse gave birth to the greatest Assamese dramatist Jyotiprasad Agarwala and raised stellar performers like Bishnu Rabha and Phani Sarma. It introduced the first theatrical orchestra in the State, standardised native Assamese songs and music and employed innovative styles of playwriting and play-production. The present study makes an analytical attempt to trace the history of performance at Ban Theatre and situate its vibrant tradition of theatre practice in the context of the development of modern Assamese theatre.

    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.

  • Ruddhasangeet by Shri Bratya Basu,Kinu Kaharer Thetar by Manoj
    Kartik The Play & Director’s Note This play has a storyline that could have been based on tomorrow morning's newspaper headlines. Using the wonderful theatrical device of three actors playing the central character of Kartik, we are able to enter his fractured world. We simultaneously see him as he was before the accident that changed his life; we also see him as he is immediately after the accident, recovering in hospital, at home and in school; as well as when he is an adult. The play brings together the present, past and uture in a seamless whole. It has been a fascinating journey with the actors and my own team. We have interviewed teenagers, their parents and teachers; watched their interactions in school, home and on the metro; created improvisations; spent hours mastering the intricate choreography; enjoyed the shopping for clothes that capture today's Delhi; and worked hard at creating over 36 characters, played by just 14 actors! The Director Educationist, theatre director and activist, Feisal Alkazi lives and works in New Delhi. Over the past forty years he has carved his own niche with his group, Ruchika. He has directed over 200 plays with adults in Hindi, English and Urdu. Most recently, two plays, Noor and A Quiet Desire, written by him have been produced. In addition, he has directed over 100 productions for schools all over India. Ruchika also runs a training program in theatre for children since 1997. Feisal has written 24 books as well and is a counsellor with Sanjivani. In the field of disability, he has directed 30 films and produced several plays.

Ghatak himself was a victim of the Partition of India in 1947. He had to leave his homeland for a life in Calcutta where for the rest of his life he could not rip off the label of being a ‘refugee’, which the natives of the ‘West’ Bengal had labelled upon the homeless East Bengal masses. The melancholic longing for the estranged homeland forms the basis of most of Ghatak’s films, especially the trilogy: Meghe Dhaka Tara (1960), Komol Gondhar (1960) and Subarnarekha (1961). Ghatak’s running obsession with the post-partition trauma acts as one of the predominant themes in the plots of his films.
