Description:
The play is a collection of small stories developed through improvisations by the artists themselves. Different stories from different aspects of the society are taken such as dowry system, experience of former Maoist commando, life of an Uraon girl (performed in Uraon language), etc. All stories have a serious issue at the base but they are performed with a comic and entertaining touch. The play Yellow Comedy was performed three times by different artists with different stories developed through a series of workshops and improvisation – First by the first batch of Shilpee Theatre’s students, then by second batch of Shilpee Theatre’s students and later by the third batch of Shilpee Theatre’s students.
