About
This dissertation is concerned with political street-theater genres, focusing on the contemporary production of the Jana Natya Manch (People's Theatre Group, or JANAM) in India, and the work of Kateb Yacine and his theater group Action Culturelle des Travailleurs (Workers' Cultural Action or ACT) in Algeria, between 1966-1975. Combining archival research in France and India with fieldwork conducted with JANAM, this project explores how leftist activists in each country have used street theater to both foster political solidarities and advocate for inclusive national communities.
