Rabindranath Tagore''s Theatre: From Page to Stage

★★★★★
★★★★★

English

By (author): Abhijit Sen Suzy Senior

Illustrated by: Dan Taylor

This book analyses Rabindranath Tagores contribution to Bengali drama and theatre. Throughout this book, Abhijit Sen locates and studies Rabindranaths experiments with drama/theatre in the context of the theatre available in nineteenth-century Bengal, and explores the innovative strategies he adopted to promote his brand of theatre. This approach finds validation in the fact that Rabindranath combined in himself the roles of author-actor-producer, who always felt that, without performance, his dramatic compositions fell short of the desired completeness. Various facets of his plays as theatre and his own role as a theatre-practitioner are the prime focus of this book. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars in Theatre and Performance Studies and most notably, those focusing on Indian Theatre and Postcolonial Theatre. See more
