Description
-
Promotional poster for EnActe Arts’ production of Chitra: The Warrior Princess, Rabindranath Tagore’s lyrical retelling of the Mahabharata story of Chitrangada. The play reimagines the warrior princess who questions conventional femininity, desire, and selfhood. Under the direction of Ranjita Chakravarty, the production foregrounded themes of gender fluidity, agency, and inner transformation, situating Tagore’s early twentieth-century feminist vision within contemporary diasporic discourse. The visual motif of multiple faces reflects the central tension between appearance and authenticity that defines Chitra’s journey.
