India has witnessed a steady increase in dramatic activity since the late nineteenth century through multiple forms and practices. Modern Indian Theatre: An Anthology brings together writings that speak to the historical contexts from which such practices emerged-colonization, cultural suppression and appropriation, intercultural transformations brought about by the impact of the colonial forces, and acute critical engagement with socio-political issues brought about by the hopes and failures of Independence. The volume addresses pertinent questions like how drama influences social change, the response of drama to the emergence and domination of mass media and the proliferation and influence of western media in India, and how mediations of gender, class, and caste influence drama, its language, forms, and aesthetics.
