{"product_id":"jatinder-verma-jerri-daboo-9781032461915","title":"Jatinder Verma","description":"Jatinder Verma has been a pioneering figure in the development of British South Asian theatre, and a prominent spokesperson for the importance of increased diversity amongst playwrights, actors, directors, designers, and producers on the mainstream British stage. As co-founder and former Artistic Director of Tara Arts, he developed a new aesthetic style known as 'Binglish' which creates a hybrid dramaturgy of languages, training and performance forms, and styles of acting, and design, that operates to establish a negotiation between cultures which reflects contemporary Britain. Verma is acknowledged as being a leading practitioner and director, as well as writer about theatre and culture, who has transformed the face of theatre in Britain and internationally.\n This book combines:\n• a detailed biography giving the social and artistic context of Verma’s work and his work with Tara Arts;\n• an exploration of Verma’s own writings on ‘Binglish’, including his use of a range of performance forms and philosophies from different cultures, such as the importance of the Natyashastra in his thinking and practice;\n• a stylistic analysis of his key productions, including Tartuffe, The Merchant of Venice, Macbeth, and the Bollywood pantomimes;\n• pathways into some of the practical exercises relating to the dramaturgical style of ‘Binglish’ devised by Jatinder Verma.\n As a first step towards critical understanding, and as an initial exploration before going on to further, primary research, Routledge Performance Practitioners offer unbeatable value for today’s student.","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50815295127840,"sku":"9781032461915","price":38.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781032461915.jpg?v=1781126296","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/jatinder-verma-jerri-daboo-9781032461915","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
