E-PAO covers Participatory Theatre
PRESS RELEASE: ARTISTS FOR CAUSE ORGANIZED ITS FIRST 'PARTICIPATORY THEATRE WORKSHOP'
Ten persons participated in the workshop and there they learned to be involved in society to identify the social problems in real means.
During the whole interactive and interesting session, facilitated by Saurabh Srivastava, who have experience of more than 20 years in theatre and who worked mostly on grassroot level through theatre, participants became familiar with situations of society , various social evils and the need.
It was also felt that only problem identification should not be the motive instead providing suggestions can work better.
Devika Mittal, masters student at SAARC university and core member of Mission Bhartiyam, described that it is art that touches every heart. Stree theatres are the tools of social reform since long time and we, through participatory theatre , will try to make it more effective where issue on which we will prepare the final play, will also come from side of participant rather than facilitator. In its unique way, we will be able to learn the process of democratization of a concept and will also be able to develop thoughts through debate, discussion etc.
Soumya Prakash who held a degree in Mass Com and presently learning social philosophies through his real participation in social activities found it useful and showed his interests alongwith various inputs.
It was also observed that professionals and students were the persons who became interested in this workshop so that they can contribute to society through theatre.
Vanshree, a masters student in SAARC university raise various issues during workshop that are required to address for a social change.
Megha, an electronics and communications engineer by profession told that she would like to work woth this group as on one hand we have a social responsibility to do for our society, on another it gives self satisfaction, happiness, positive energy, personality development. Through this, we can spread awareness as well as learn.
In an interesting debate during the workshop, where every participant has to tell topics on which they would like to make first stree play, and then his/her topic discussed with all; it was found that various popular issues that were raised and discussed became null and void to be accepted as real problem, instead the real problem discovered.
At the end, Pankaj Pathak on behalf of Mission Bhartiyam conveyed his sincere thanks to all who participated. He also told that we would like to train people who want to contribute to society through theatre by this initiative.
Artists for cause actually provides a platform to people who want to get involved in social activities and who want to spread message among society through art (theatre, painting, sketching, music etc) . However artists for cause will try to work among general public through their work at public places.
PROPOSED VISIT OF 'SADBHAVNA DAL' AT KOSI KALAN, MATHURA (U.P.) TO SPREAD MESSAGE OF LOVE< PEACE< HARMONY & HUMANITY AFTER A RECENT COMMUNAL VIOLENCE REPORTED
We believe that in the country like India, where harmony and unity among diversity is the basic feature of society and where non violence, peace and love are the values that we learnt since our childhood, its our responsibility to work for the humanity to give efforts towards social integration and to make our society living and cheerful with the objective of happiness for all, whenever this basic feature of society becomes unbalance.
Now, when the incidents at kosi kalan shocked the people living in this society, we would like to visit kosi kalan with our 10 member delegation as a ' Sadbhavna Dal', just to spread message of humanity and communal harmony. During our day long visit, we will distribute pamphlets (that will give message of peace, non violence and harmony), we will sing songs of love, peace and harmony.
Delegation will include equal numbers of hindu and muslim members who are working on communal harmony at grass root level. Members may belong from Mission Bhartiyam, Sadbhavna Mission, Khudai Khidmatgar and Asha Parivar. We will not be involved in any other activity as the visit will only focus on communal harmony.
We hope that this initiative will also help the efforts of district administration towards the peace and harmony.
Please note that in case you require, as a security reasons and requirements of district administration, we are ready to provide a list of our proposed members who will visit (with their name and address), we are ready to produce identity cards, we are also ready to provide our pamphlets that will be distributed and list of songs that will be sung by members.
