El teatro postcolonial de India se ha consolidado como un teatro de denuncia social y política. Las temáticas tratadas en dichas obras, como en particular en A touch of brightness de Partab Sharma, son múltiples y variadas, con un singular énfasis en las problemáticas de género. India es un país con una sociedad profundamente patriarcal, por lo cual las mujeres sufren mucha violencia y restricciones. La prostitución en India constituye un tema conflictivo dado sus implicaciones. La mayoría de las mujeres que ejercen la prostitución en India no han llegado a eso por propia decisión sino que son víctimas de redes de trata o de familiares que las venden a los burdeles. Esto comenzó durante la colonia inglesa y aún continúa. Es por ello, que el teatro y los dramaturgos indios han tomado esta temática para poder denunciar la violencia que sufren las mujeres de las clases más empobrecidas de India.

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. |
