Postdramatic Theatre and India

Theatre-Making Since the 1990s

By: Ashis Sengupta

This book revisits Hans-Thies Lehmann's theory of the postdramatic and participates in the ongoing debate on the theatre paradigm by placing contemporary Indian performance within it. None of the Indian theatre-makers under study built their works directly on the Euro-American model of postdramatic theatre, but many have used its vocabulary and apparatus in innovative, transnational ways. Their principal aim was to invigorate the language of Indian urban theatre, which had turned stale under the stronghold of realism inherited from colonial stage practice or prescriptive under the decolonizing drive of the 'theatre of roots' movement after independence. Emerging out of a set of different historical and cultural contexts, their productions have eventually expanded and diversified the postdramatic framework by crosspollinating it with regional performance forms. Theatre in India today includes devised performance, storytelling across forms, theatre solos, cross-media performance, theatre installations, scenographic theatre, theatre-as-event, reality theatre, and so on. The book balances theory, context and praxis, developing a new area of scholarship in Indian theatre. Interspersed throughout are Indian theatre-makers' clarifications of their own practices vis-à-vis those in Europe and the US.

Prince of Aryavrat

By: Ashis Chirgun

Finally, the Prince of Aryavrat and Princess of Dravidanchal have had to born with their maximum human attributes to protect humanity. Where there is ambiguity, there is always luminosity. This book takes you on a tour of a million years ago in the utopian period where lives on earth were just sprouting. Selfishness, Jealousy, Lust and Ego, like ethos, were yet to develop in the minds of humans, but the constant fight between Gods and Demons was a matter of great concern for Almighty Supreme Creator. The consequences resulted in the suffering of innocent humans. From that remarkable event, humanity’s horrific aftermath began. The Ancient, Culturally rich, Land of Great Warriors, Full of Repositories and Mysteries, ‘Aryavrat,’ once had become dystopian in the stain of bloodshed. The Almighty Supreme Creator had become so concerned with the delicate future of Humans that without God’s interference, humans could not have stood between the frightening God and Demon wars. The Prince of Aryavrat is a learning experience for readers as it beautifully answers their most intriguing questions. "Generosity in every heart is inevitable to sustain and nurture Mother Earth; otherwise, mankind will perish – Almighty Lord Rudra.
