Theatre of India
The earliest form of the theatre of India was the Sanskrit theatre.〔Richmond, Swann, and Zarrilli (1993, 12).〕 It began after the development of Greek and Roman theatre and before the development of theatre in other parts of Asia.〔 It emerged sometime between the 2nd century BC and the 1st century AD and flourished between the 1st century AD and the 10th, which was a period of relative peace in the history of India during which hundreds of plays were written.〔Brandon (1997, 70) and Richmond (1998, 516).〕 With the Islamic conquests that began in the 10th and 11th centuries, theatre was discouraged or forbidden entirely.〔Brandon (1997, 72) and Richmond (1998, 516).〕 Later, in an attempt to re-assert indigenous values and ideas, village theatre was encouraged across the subcontinent, developing in a large number of regional languages from the 15th to the 19th centuries.〔Brandon (1997, 72), Richmond (1998, 516), and Richmond, Swann, and Zarrilli (1993, 12).〕 Modern Indian theatre developed during the period of colonial rule under the British Empire, from the mid-19th century until the mid-20th.〔Richmond (1998, 516) and Richmond, Swann, and Zarrilli (1993, 13).〕 In order to resist its use by Indians as an instrument of protest against colonial rule, the British Government imposed the Dramatic Performances Act in 1876. From the last half of the 19th century, theatres in India experienced a boost in numbers and practice. After Indian independence in 1947, theatres spread throughout India as one of the means of entertainment. As a diverse, multi-cultural nation, the theatre of India cannot be reduced to a single, homogenous trend. In contemporary India, the major competition with its theatre is that represented by growing television industry and the spread of films produced in the Indian film industry based in Mumbai (formerly Bombay), known as "Bollywood". Lack of finance is another major obstacle.
