Conflict Theatre in Your Village! |

After the play
stops: Future Plans
 Given the
exceptionally positive response the Kachahari Theater Project has
received both from the participants and the audiences, we expect
that the project will be built on further in the coming months and
years. The responsibility for developing the project has been
placed in the hands of the participants. So far some the
initiatives to emerge have been:
Local theater troupes. Partners will
continue to develop the method in their own work in the villages.
Some partners have already made plans for formalizing theater
troupes locally and going on village tours.
Manual. The participants of the training
produced the rough outline for a manual for Kachahari Theater.
Aarohan and MS/Nepal will support the eventual publication of the
manual.
Network. The participants have discussed
the idea of forming a network for people working with Kachahari
Theater.
International exposure, training and
performances. MS/Nepal is actively committed to further
developing the use of the theater approach to expose the social
conflicts involving deprived communities. We are trying to put
together an international exposure trip for our partners that
would combine human rights and conflict resolution training with
opportunities to perform abroad and develop new linkages. Perhaps
they will be coming to a village near you soon!
Your ideas and suggestions… We are still
experimenting, learning and developing this kind of theater in
Nepal. We would very much like to hear your responses to what we
have done or your own experience. Write us!
