As we know that today is a day when we celebrate World Theatre Day, a day when we have so many outstanding & high range of quality & quantity of Drama in a form of play which we can see & enjoy in theaters.
Drama performances are too good & fruitful to see & observe in various ways to look at.here I m going to share something about one of my favourite drama named 'Yerma' (Barren)is a play by the Spanish dramatist Federico García Lorca. It was written in 1934 and first performed that same year. García Lorca describes the play as "a tragic poem." The play tells the story of a childless woman living in rural Spain. As I think that a play or a drama performance has such quality to show the inner & outer side of the particular content matter or depth of the story as it can indicates a performance which already has benefit within it's matter of preparations to attract us.another is
that it's an art to entertain & teach us something with anyhow connect with us. In this drama performance if we try to focus then we have the same feelings towards it.as it has that depth & highly regarded sentiments to connect us with it's own part of the story well.Sometimes we can not share something which we have sometimes by force or by some fear we may destroy or hide it from other.at that time we may adjust with that but at some point when we have overflow of that emotions & sentiments which we forced to hide may goes on high scaling as a spring which by pressuring goes much higher that indirectly shows that how it can not a thing which we can hide or pretend but it definitely will be a drastic weapon to face the situation with it's own way of judge the same.Yerma-Barren,in it's name we may get idea to started thinking on it.a childless woman who has too much emotions,sentiments in her life yet just because of her lack Of being mother she cruelly misbehaved or getting too much hatred from her own husband & society surrounded her.
With the passing of time she had that condition which can not help her to come out from all of that behaviors & way of treatment she had from her dear & near members
.A woman who generally has no rights & priority to raise her voice & to share her preference but mostly she used to get ignorance only. In this drama also we have the same feelings towards Yerma who has such condition which she had to face in isolation & depression when she treated baldly even her husband didn't try to understand her feelings at that time she must had to take the step against that situation as well as her own unbearable condition of mind which actually forced her to fight against that.
Yerma strongly faced that situation at the end of the play when she killed her husband by attacking a pot & as some critics opinionated that she by herself ended her own way of getting fulfilment to become a mother of a child.but the way of behaving & reactions she had before badly forced her mentally to end it all.
At the end,I would say that if such drama performances are with us to indicate to highlight current touched issues & matters we may be an eyewitness to connect it with our surroundings also.
Yerma a woman who has no child her name intentionally selected which means Barren.
Just of because of a child if her husband & society didn't response her or support her she lose her all hope & desires & how she became cruel or forced to be that was not merely a scene to end the situation but it has that depth of her inner condition of mind which she suffered badly. She didn't want to have power or any high comforts but she wished to be filled with honor,respect & support throughout her life to at least come out from her disturbed condition of mind & lack of a child.
A balanced relationship was not there which can support her to adjust with that situation instead of that she had to face it with isolation,depression & ignorance that reacted very emotionally as well as cruelly.
At last, I would say that it's a good & emotional drama which has the same connection with recent social issues surrounding us where a woman has to die all her desires & feelings & just remains a puppet of her surroundings which never can be ready to accept any lack or fault of a woman. At that time how that suppressed victimized personality reacted to show all her anger,inner emotions & expectations that was quite touching & ever lasted in our mind. That all can be possible to touch our mind through such an art of drama performances & by celebrating such special days we try to give honour to such incredible touched art.
Have a good time...
Happy World Theatre Day to all of u....!!!
