Moncho Kabbo: purbachal new town
Abstract
If we try to find out the sources of entertainment or recreational activities in our life we will see people go for movies, concert, restaurants, clubs, sports centers, amusement park, parks and galleries and there are few who goes to Theatre. Theatre is an ancient source of entertainment in world history and now a days it is becoming extinct day by day. One reason behind this is lack of proper auditoriums and the location of them.
In Dhaka there are few places where theatre is being performed and among them only Shilpokola Academy ( JatioNattoshala) has the proper auditorium according to the actors. MohilaShomity and Bangladesh girl’s guide association auditorium is under renovation. So if we took them under consideration we will see all these auditorium is on the south side of Dhaka, therefore the north demands a proper auditorium too.
Thus Monchokabbo is a theatre complex which will be a theatre village, or Theatre Park, a platform for the artist related to the field, a place where they can celebrate “Theatre” and interact with the interested audience. It is also a platform for the students who wants to learn more about drama and its related culture. A theatre club to promote the essence of theatre and to bring back the Theatre tradition among new generation. 3
