Drama is the specific mode of fiction represented in performance. In order to
understand social and dynamic significances dramatic art is necessary. We believe,
to ascertain the difference between the functions of art for art’s sake and art as the
mirror of life.Educational theatre and drama practitioners have believed in the
efficacy of their work for a long time, but until now it has rarely been measured with
scientific tools.
Dance is a type of art that generally involves movement of the body,
often rhythmic and to music. It is performed in many cultures as a form of emotional
expression, social interaction, or exercise, in a spiritual or performance setting, and
is sometimes used to express ideas or tell a story. Dance in India (like all other
traditions and beliefs) has a mythological beginning as well. Centuries ago when the
world was steeped in anger and jealousy, greed and desire, pleasure and pain the
people went to Brahma to seek an end to this misery. It is said that Brahma created
the Natya Veda, the fifth scripture to save humanity from deterioration from moral
values. Shiva, the Lord of dance is said to have created the Universe with
his Ananda Tandavam, or the dance of joy.
RANGMANCH is the dance and drama club of Kiit School of biotechnology launched
on 22ndFebruary, 2014, at the event of KINESIS. We performed a small DANCEDRAMA (story based on life of a joker), called SCRURARUM..
Our hypothesis was that educational theatre and drama has an impact on five
Competences.
1. Communication in the mother tongue,
2. Learning to learn,
3. Interpersonal, intercultural and social competences, civic competence,
4. Entrepreneurship,
5. Cultural expression
We aim at bringing upcoming talents to the spotlight, thus enhancing their capability
to flourish.
