The street theatre has time and again proved an effective communication tool for taking even the toughest message in a simple way to the people, in particular to the rural masses. Of late, this form has come good for propagating social messages and creates awareness among the people on the serious issues concerning the whole society. The NSS Volunteers got an opportunity to understand the nuances and practice the street plays.
A half day workshop on Street Play was organized by the NSS Unit on August 31, 2019. The main objective of the workshop is to empower students with regard to their performing skills and identify their potential talents.
Mr. Jagan Pawar, famous dramatist of the region was the resource person. First, he started the session by explaining the history and evolution of street play as a means to educate the masses on the social issues. He said street play is the simplest form of act including dance, drama and music. In the later session he explained the practical part by demonstrating and involving the students by making them perform on a given subject. 30 NSS students were benefited from the workshop and they participated actively with zeal.
