Youth Festival Rang Mohan 2019

Hello readers !

   Welcome to my blog. Here Iam going to share my experience about 29th Inter college Youth festival Rang Mohan 2019 at Maharaja KrishnKumarSinhji Bhavnagar university, Gujarat, India.  And also discussed some critical points about drama,poetry and etc; Throughout 26 to 28 September competition are going on. In the date 25 ,'kalayatra' at Shamaldas college to Sardar Patel institute.

     In kalayatra all the  participate college's came  with various theme. Based on the theme three numbers are given.   This  Youth festival is celebrated as Mahatma Gandhi's 150th birth anniversary. So in kalayatra each and every college select theme on gandhian thoughts except one or two college other theme that also related to Gandhi.

•  1. Theme of 'kalayatra' :

 - My life is my message

 - Divine journey if Mohan to Mahatma

 - My dream India

 - Equality in justice

 - Where I am ?

 - New India

 - 11Mahavrata given by Gandhi, etc:

•   2. Major themes in dramatic events like one act play, skit,Mime, Monoacting.

      In youth Festival many dramatic events are there . In which students came with various theme like :

•      One of the one act play theme is ' artificial intelligence in which we find that modern view of life . What is most important in our life : rational thinking or emotional thinking. Don't be emotional but be rational. This one act play is one of my favourite drama in this youth festival.

• In which many play we find that religion and social orthodox

• No use of 21st century's technology

• Believe in religion rather than doctor and medical treatment

• Women don't have voice

• Satire on society, political leaders, people's mentality, thinking, absurdity.

• Rape scene

• Domestic violence

• Untouchability

• Current problems like Notbandhi, GST, Traffic rules , chandrayan, corruption in India.
• In Monoacting students came with this type of theme like that :

• Kasturba's pain for her son

• Ancient character like Ravana, Ds propounded by many critics on the dramatic events presented in youth festival.

• 'Manas name gal' with  various example

• Kalakar ki Katha

3. Can you apply dramatic literary theories propounded by many critics on the dramatic events presented in youth festival

       In youth festival's dramatic events we not find that any specific theories but at some point we can say that theories is there. According to  Aristotle the aim of tregedy is to bring about ' catharsis' . I think each and every one act play we feel the pity and fear for character ,so catharsis is there in youth festival . 

And also Aristotle talk about six elements about tregedy like that: plot, character, diction, thought, spectacle, song( music).that all the things used in this one act play. 

    Here we not find that Ben Johnson's comedy of humour in one act play but in Skeat we find that this type of comic character who present the comedy. And as well as make satire in society.

     In Skeat we find that Martin esslin's absurd theatre at some point only not whole.

4. Can you categories one act play or dramatic events as sentimental, anti-sentimental comedy, comedy of manners, classical tragedy, modern tragicomedy or Bollywoodish theatre performance.

    In this youth festival one of the one act play followed classical rules like that unity of time, action and place. That drama is " artificial intelligence".

     And one of the play we find that ending like Romeo and Juliet. The play 'Lakhami' in which the two lover get died at the end. And also in this play plot giigo on story within a story.

     Specially in Skeat we find that charactristic of anti-sentimental comedy like that farce, laughter, Irony, disguise,wit and intelligent humour. Many of Skeat we find that this all charactristic.

    If we talked about Bollywoodish theatre then that is not followed perfectly but at some point we saw that Bollywood features.

5. Poetry :

     In our Youth festival we don't have many events like dramatic events , in poetry. We have only this spot poetry writing.

• Subject of poetry :

   - kaliyug craves for Gandhi

   - Meera and Radha

   - cleanliness and healthiness

   - Daughter- A glance from father's eyes

   - I am Gujarati

     This five subject given to students for writing poetry. Most of the students who showed his/her interest towards two subject that is  'Meera and Radha' and ' Daughter- a glance from father's eyes.

     Many of the poems theme is Love, sacrifice, Gandhi used as symbol in many poem.

6. Art event : 

    In this art event we find that  cartooning, painting, collage, poster making, claymodeling, installation etc.
