It is not just the forests and villages that are swept by the waves of development and globalization,even the cities are caught in the web and have lost their charm and glory. In the mad rush for development, the cultural roots are washed away and this trend is spreading like an epidemic. The people of the city wearing a proud badge of progress, when they turn around and look at the places from where they grew up, are not only surprised but shocked. That moment opens a door of realization towards the endless path of loneliness and confusion. It is as important to save the cultural traits of a city as it is to save a forest or a village. A group of friends caught in the web of globalization plan to meet at a place where they had spent their childhood and that place is “Mavinagudi Colony” (Mango Temple Colony). As the name itself suggests, a mango tree is the focal point. And this tree is now on the verge of being destroyed for the development of the area. The friends decide to meet under the tree before it is brought down. Recollecting their childhood memories they spend few hours, reliving those joyous moments. Mavinagudi colony brings back the nostalgic elements of one’s life and draws the attention towards the effects of progress and globalization.

‘Akshayambara’ is an experimental Kannada play that uses both modern theatrical tools and the dance drama form of Yakshagana to create a contemporary narrative that raises questions on female representation and male ownership. The play was developed through the INLAKS Scholarship ’14, supported by the India Foundation for the Arts (IFA) and premiered at the Ranga Shankara Theatre Festival ’15. The play won the best original script and best actor (male) at the Mahindra Excellence in Theatre Awards (META) '16. What happens when a woman enters the professional space of a dance form performed by men for the last 800 years? Drawing from research and personal experience, the performance imagines a reversal of roles in the popular Yakshagana plot of ‘Draupadi Vastrapaharana’. A veteran male artist in streevesha (female disguise) plays the virtuous Draupadi, while in a tradition defying move, an amateur woman is cast as the chief antagonist, Kaurava. When tradition allows a man to play a woman will the same tradition accept the reverse? How does her entry redefine who is man and who is woman, who wields power, who is hero and antagonist, victim and perpetrator? How far will the traditional boundaries be pushed when an outsider enters the inner circle? What will be its consequences? The performers confront these questions as they shift between stage and greenroom, between male and female, stage and reality, personal and political, their tussle offering radically new perspectives on tradition, gender, power and morality.

Among all the Bhasa plays, 'Urubhangam', has an eternal relevance cutting across centuries. In 'Urubhangam', the hero is Duryodhana, usually regarded as the anti-hero, or the villain in all the traditional renderings of Mahabharata. Not only that, the play maintains a unique objective perspective while approaching the great battle of Mahabharata that almost criticises the whole exercise of the war. In that way, this could even be described as a strong anti-war play. However, hardly any documentary evidence except for some unconfirmed reports exists of the staging of Urubhangam as part of the repertoire of Kutiyattam in the olden days. Neither the Kramadeepika nor the Attaprakaram for 'Urubhangam', were available from the tradition even to this day. While doing homework to produce this one-act play on the stage of Kutiyattam we have read the text over and over, and many possibilities of performance started to emerge. We, the team of Abhinaya Kalari of Natanakairali, prepared the Attapraprakaram by deciding to present the whole play through just four of the characters, namely Balarama, Duryodhana, Gandhari and Aswathama.

The play's theme is 'a savior fails because of his inability to communicate in clear language to those he would save'. The play depicts the destruction of a family due to misunderstanding among the members of the family. Jan does not heed his wife when she advises him to introduce himself plainly. Jan's sister Martha accepts nothing but impersonal conversation. Jan's mother is too weary to respond to his hints. The misunderstandings and lack of comprehension thwart their desires illustrate Camus' Philosophy of the absurd. This tragedy creates the drama.

Aalav borrows the bare bones of the original story of J M Synge’s Irish play ‘Riders to the Sea’and creates a world that is Kashmiri in all it’s shades and hues and hence a narrative that unfolds within the contemporary realm and presents a reality that the people of the valley live day in and day out. The story of the old mother and her daughters resonates within the social and political context and is present with all its complexities and intricacies. For Zooni the endless wait that has left her home empty and all she is left to be content with isthe proper burial of her youngest son Jana. Her tribulations along with her daughters Noori and Aasiya forms the major portion of the narrative of the play. The play blends folk theatrical form of Kashmir with modern theatrical techniques while remaining true to the demands of a tragic rendition of battered human emotions in a setting that reflects the age old traditions nurtured by compassion and kindness. Use of immersive theatrical experience for the audience is also attempted for a greater appeal and empathy towards a larger human tragedy that unfolds everywhere.
