DOONGAJI HOUSE
Selected Plays
by Cyrus Mistry
ALEPH BOOK COMPANY 252 pages; ₹599
Unlike fiction or poetry (which Indians love to compose though it gets little coverage), our original drama in English has lain in the doldrums for several years. The spark that Mahesh Dattani’s 1950s-born generation ignited in the last two decades of the 20th century seems to have been snuffed out. Manjula Padmanabhan completed her last full-length play in 2015. Dattani’s output has decreased since he grew more involved in screen work. Only Gowri Ramnarayan continues regularly with her lyrical classical-based scripts. Among younger dramatists, Abhishek Majumdar has attracted attention for the conservative backlash provoked by his political activism.
