From 1992 to 1999 the playwright wrote plays based on urban social problems, with psychological role-plays. The group experimented and produced plays of social realism and middle class crisis. All the plays were well accepted and acclaimed by our audience and critics.
During the year 1999, Sansaptak took up a project to search for a much liberated and universal subject, levied with Indian artistic and cultural ethos. Inspired by Sham Sheppard's 'Buried Child', they soared to the lands of their roots, West Bengal, in search of a language required for the interpretation of the play. After weeks of rigorous research and discussion, Torit Mitra wrote "GARVAJ (The womb)", a very powerful and a highly successful play. This play started SANSAPTAK's journey producing much stronger plays with intensive reading, research and methodical rehearsal procedures. In years to come, the Group adopted newer methods of actors training program. For each play SANSAPTAK uses different methodology, needed for the particular subject, going through extensive study and method orientation, painted on a broader canvas.
With the sincere efforts and the burning passion for theatre within each and every member of the Group, it received many awards and recognitions in the field of theatre. Since 1992-2007, the Group has been restricted only to Bengali Theatre, to reach out for a much wider audience and portray the richness of the subject areas covered in SANSAPTAK's plays, the Group has already begun the journey into the world of Hindi theatre, with the successful production of " HARI BHARI KHWAISH ". Sansaptak expects to leave a long lasting impression and break the language barrier that exists in the theatre arena of the Capital. |
