EnActe Arts, The Kingdom of Cards (2019–2020 Season)

Description
-
Promotional poster for EnActe Arts’ production of Rabindranath Tagore’s The Kingdom of Cards (Tasher Desh). Directed by Ranjita Chakravarty, the production reimagined Tagore’s satirical allegory of conformity and liberation for contemporary Bay Area audiences. Originally written in 1933, the play critiques rigid social hierarchies through a fantastical kingdom governed by rules and ritual. This staging reflects Silicon Valley’s ongoing engagement with Tagore’s modernist theatrical legacy and the reinterpretation of canonical South Asian texts within diasporic performance practice.
