Event

This Stained Dawn: Dagh Dagh Ujala
Voices of Partition is a collaboration with Theatre Wallay, a theatre company in Islamabad, Pakistan. This five-stage project is funded by a U.S. Embassy grant and the Fulbright Specialist program. It focuses on the personal stories of survivors of the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947: the largest mass migration in modern history, and one in which over one million lives were lost. The project is both an attempt to preserve these stories before a generation of survivors is lost, and also educate people in our own country about a world event that has and continues to have enormous ramifications.

The project is being implemented in five stages:

Stage 1 : Kathleen and Sarah traveled to Islamabad and led a week-long workshop for Theatre Walley company members on developing dramatic material out of personal narratives collected in interviews with Partition survivors

Stage 2: Theatre Walley members conducted similar workshops across the Punjab region of Pakistan, helping university students create their own original monologues out of interviews with family members who survived Partition. Theatre Wallay members also continued to interview additional survivors.

Stage 3: Kathleen returned to Islamabad for the month of April with her husband, fellow Fulbrighter and theatre artist David Studwell. They collaborated with Theatre Wallay actors to create an original piece of theatre based on collected interviews.

Stage 4: The production opened in Islamabad in late April and then toured to Lahore.

Stage 5: In fall of 2015, the production will tour to Boston, Ithaca NY and Washington, D.C.
