Event Description : "Towards an Oral History" Discussion with Sambhav by Deepanshu about Delhi Theatre
Discussions on Amateur Theatre
Non-commercial theatre groups often identify themselves as ‘amateur’ or else independent. This ‘amateur’ theatre has had a big role in sustaining theatre activity in urban centers. Yet, amidst the expanding budgets of big theatre productions, the difficulty of practicing socially committed independent theatre has been constantly noted by artists and activists. In such an environment, it is necessary that we initiate an engagement with our contemporary past in order to gain insight about our present situation. With this view in our mind, we are holding a series of public discussions with members of Delhi-based independent theatre groups of the 1970s and 1980s. These Discussions will be hosted by Deepanshu Mahajan. He is a research student at the University of Delhi. His M.Phil research entails studying the history of independent theatre in Delhi.
Sambhav was founded in 1984 by National School of Drama graduates Devendra Raj Ankur, Rajendra Gupt and Suresh Bhardwaj. With Mannu Bhandari's Mahabhoj as its first production, Sambhav is credited to have produced no less than 24 productions in its first three years. Sambhav’s experiments with techniques of adapting stories as plays have made its productions an indispensable part of the genre Kahani ka Rangmanch.
