Event Description : Sangeet Natak Akademi presents Screening of "Taming of the Wild" Contemporary Puppet Theatre.


The play is divided into four episodes; each episode signifies a major part of the story line. lt basically displays the interaction of various beautiful forms of nature; butterflies, fishes, trees in their pristine form, and the human interactions with them.


The world within 

The luminous water dances in the sunlight. The spectrum embraces every creature. The fun and frolic go on. The Mama fish and Papa fish peak and run. The family rejoice like they have never done. The angler is now ready and the first catch delights him. The Papa" is well hooked. He writhes in pain and in a flash he is in the sack... The angler prepares for his next kill.

Floral tribute 
The lush green Tree stands proudly in the greenery of Mother Nature. The bees flutter around it and steal honey. Birds sing to it while the butterfly spreads its silky wings and Caresses it. One day a greedy man Comes . . . He pulls out his saw and gets down to work. But when the saw breaks . . .

Movements in wilderness 
A spider walks leisurely and the string Cries out leaving a resonance behind. A bird flying merrily changes the Course of its flight and lands Curiously on the Tabla . . . It calls out for its mate and both of them share their new secret . . . in the next few movements a Symphony is born. The violin Cannot be far behind.


Call of the wild 
On the shores of the Ocean, Nature is in ecstasy. The sea is in rapture. The Crane spouses dance to the rhythm of the bellowing waves. The meek seashell holding a glittering pearl in its womb lies idly on the shore, basking in the warmth of the sun. Amidst all this joy and tranquility the good and the bad side of the hunter appears. The prowler goes around with the trap in search of its victim. The Crane spouses carry on their ballet . . .
