| Sumario: | The postcolonial theater of India has established itself as a theater of social and political denunciation. The themes dealt with in these works are multiple and varied, with a singular emphasis on gender issues. India is a country with a deeply patriarchal society, for which women suffer much violence and restrictions. Prostitution in India is a controversial issue given its implications. The majority of women who practice prostitution in India have not come to that by their own decision but are victims of trafficking networks or family members who sell them to brothels. This started during the English colony and still continues. That is why Indian theater and playwrights have taken this theme to be able to denounce the violence suffered by women from the most impoverished classes in India. |
