Theatre Across Borders

This community project, chiefly in Hindi/ Urdu, explores the intersections among place, praxis and people's theatre and is shaped since 1986 by the efforts of many individuals and groups working in India and the USA. Amateurs and professional actors have come together to reflect on social issues through their own stories; through the works of Nazeer Akbarabadi, Premchand, Ismat Chughtai, Manto, and Asghar Wajahat; and through stories told by organizations such as Vanangana and Sangtin.
