Since ages, stories have been molded into films, poems into plays, letters into novels and so much more.
Since the pandemic, a new medium of adaptation gained significance- the digital medium. And theatre makers across the world played and explored with digital dramas.
El Pueblo came up with their production 'No Country For Women' - A live, experimental, interactive, inter-media and most importantly, digital theatre production exploring the pandemic induced lockdown from a gender perspective. We've been doing shows of NCFW with various institutions, organisations, civil society groups and universities.
But now, since things have started opening up, we, as theatre makers and practitioners were intrigued and thrilled to think if a digital theatre can be adapted into a physical one. It was a challenge for us, but we have been fond of experiments!
And we did a physical show of NCFW at Goethe Darbaar×Freedom at Goethe Institut on July 29, 2022. We're very much thankful to Goethe Institut for inviting us, giving us the platform and for all the cooperation which went in organising this play. And to a very lovely audience who came, watched, listened, appreciated and gave us their valuable feedback.
