Sankalp-the Theatre Society of Mica
Proposal for Sponsorship - ‘Sankalp’, the theatre society at MICA

Dear Sir/Madam, It is with great pleasure that we introduce to you Sankalp, 2011-12, the student-run theatre initiative at MICA. Sankalp – MICA‟s annual theatre initiative - its main interface and cultural connect with its home city- Ahmedabad. Sankalp has always stood by the literal meaning of its name- a resolution. A resolution that through the medium of theatre, we will sensitise our society towards the burning social issues to which we have for long been indifferent to. A resolution, that each one of our audience leaves the theatre with a new perspective, inclined towards seeing the broader reason of their existence i.e. to make the world better place to live for everyone. A resolution, that we bring some positive difference in the lives of those in need. Sankalp, during its eleven years of existence, has maintained a firm belief in how theatre can be used to influence social change. This is evident in almost any activity it has initiated, from its annual feature plays at Natrani Theatre which are normally based on contemporary social issues to its street play event Rangmanch which brings to light key issues concerning the common man. This year, Sankalp takes the celebration of experimentation in theatre one step ahead with a full-fledged theatre festival on campus, which will run along with the three-day grand production at the Natrani Amphitheatre in Ahmedabad. We would be happy to build an association of mutual benefit with your organization, and share this connect with the city and its people, and the Indian student community at large. Warm Regards, Aditya & Mahesh Marketing, Sankalp 2011

    What is Theatre? That question has multiple answers. The word theatre itself comes from the greek word theatron which means “seeing place.” It is not only a place to be seen or a place to see, theatre is a way of life. Theatre can be seen in different ways, for example, it can be a building, company, and even an occupation. An empty space and be used as a theatre if you bring all of the components needed; a place to act and a place to watch. There are two other ways to describe theatre, software (which are the people and activities) and hardware (the place where something is seen). Work, art, performance, and impersonation are all aspects of theatre as an occupation. Theatre is not only seen as perfecting technical skills but about creating a work of art. All of the people directing, producing, acting, crewing, and more, work together to create a performance for the audience to enjoy. Directing involves coordinating and unifying the entire play, producing handles all of the legal and financial duties, building and perfecting a production involves the actors to work after rehearsals, as you can see more goes into making a theatre than most people think. We have forms of theatre all around us, in almost all aspects of our daily life. You can see the evolution of theatre from when it was performed in open spaces in ancient Greece, to the movie theatre that we go enjoy today, even to the radio that we were while we’re driving. In everything that we watch and hear there are people behind the scenes producing, directing, crewing, doing everything that they need to in order for us to have our show. It’s is and always will be about the performance and the audience, nothing more.…

    It is a truth that in such a technologically savvy and dependant generation as today 's, venturing to the theatre is slowly becoming a rarity. This is due to the strong, extensive domination of film, television and new media, clearly eminent in the present entertainment industry. Live theatre in Brisbane is constantly competing with the comfort and affordability of staying in and enjoying a pre-recorded television show or watching a 3D movie in one 's own home. There is next to no motivation for people in today 's general public to attend a theatrical performance leading to the classification of live theatre as passé and dated. However this does not in any way signify that the quality of theatre has degraded. For those who enjoy the emotive and interactive experience of attending live theatre, Brisbane has an array of diverse shows that are perfect indicators of the level of high quality theatre that is available to the community. In fact through the thorough analysis of three different levels of productions: Wicked, Summer and Smoke and Lying Cheating Bastard this essay will attempt to prove that through the manipulation of the elements of tension and relationships within each of these plays, dramatic meaning is created and the quality of theatre is heightened.…

    COLLECTIVE MIND: a theatre crowd is distinct from any of these. In spite of being different, however, the theatre audience shares with all such groups the special characteristics of the collective mind. Becoming part of a group is a crucial element of the theatre experience. For a time, we share a common undertaking, focused on one activity. We also sense intangible communion with those around us. When a collection of individuals respond more or less in unison to what is occurring onstage, their relationship to one another is reaffirmed. For a moment we are part of a group sharing an experience; and our sorrow or joy, which we thought might be ours alone, is found to be part of a board human response.…

    OPRF high school is brimming with diverse cliques, groups, and clubs. But one particular cohort seems to stand out from the rest. The theatre department, overseen by Michelle Bayer, can be described as a whirlwind of activity, with 10 official productions each year. My group researched it for the education unit, but the majority of them were unfamiliar with the activity, and I felt the overall presentation was unrepresentative of what high school theatre is. It can be characterized, primarily, by an abundance of drama, both in the acting sense, and in the social sense. Theatre kids are infamous for their diva-like attitudes, and occasional entitlement. I had the opportunity to observe these behaviors up close and personal with my shows I participated in this year.…

    On March 3rd, I went to a play called Boys Will Be Boys in UNI’s Interpreters Theatre. I initially went because a friend of mine was in it and they asked me to attend. I was excited because i’ve only seen plays done by Theatre UNI, so it would be a nice change to see a smaller scale production. The theatre is located in Lang Hall. It was a very intimate theatre with little to no staging. The actors had to rely solely on a few props and their ability to act.…

    Shakespeare's plays have amazed many generations with his superior vocabulary and compelling characters and plot. Shakespeare's plays would not be nearly as well known or rejoiced if it wasn't for the Globe Theatre, a revolutionary (at the time) design that made it easy for the audience to see the performance. The theatre unfortunately was burnt on June 29, 1663 was rebuilt on June 1964, but more on that later. The Globe was Shakespeare's first theatre for the company he worked for; they built it just for their playwright's which at the time was amazing. Shakespeare had a love for the theatre and felt that the building of the Globe Theatre many more people would be able to enjoy it also, and he was right.…

    The Gilbert and Sullivan Society of the University of Western Ontario stages a single high quality theatre production every year for the local community. This year will be a performance of HMS Pinafore. Francis Vanden Hoven was selected to be the producer of the performance and is faced with budget restrictions, tight deadlines and the challenge of producing a high quality show that will generate positive reviews. Francis is a business student at the university with no prior theatre experience. In order to prepare he has scheduled a meeting with his assistants Deb, Mona and Liz. During the meeting many factors that affect the production were discussed. Some of which include wardrobe, set construction, marketing, volunteers, hired staff, blackout dates, budget and so on. The task at hand for Francis Vanden seems to be proper project management to ensure a successful production.

    “The whole world is a playhouse” was a phrase that hung above one of the most well-known theaters in the Elizabethan Era. Because of the high demand of entertainment in that time period, The Globe Theater became an enormous success. People in Shakespeare's time desperately wanted some sort of entertainment to take their mind of their hardships and The Globe provided that break. Moreover, many of William Shakespeare's plays performed at this theater, helping make The Globe famous not only back then but also today. In London, people still flock to a replica of The Globe to watch Shakespeare's plays. This theater has a fascinating beginning, unusual entertainment, and a tragic end yet it still remains one of the most well-known theaters throughout history.…

    Plays, as a special form of art which has an old history, are still active on the stage nowadays. However, the ways to display the stories on the stage tends to be not creative. Usually, one stage and many actors who collaborate with each other to demonstrate the story and the theme of it. However, among all of the shows I have ever watched, the “Character Man” can be considered as the most special and insightful play I have ever seen. I am so touching by this show in two perspectives. The first one is the insights that I see from the play. The second one is the design of the stage and how the story is narrated.…
