Dhanashree Heblikar(Actor and Creative Director) went  to the UK parliament to present the work  of theatre from India. We are (Swatantra Theatre) doing a research project on ‘RESILENCE OF MIGRANTS’ and this is based on Theatre Methodlogy. An Research by De Montfort University Leicester, UK and Reasearch Head is  Prof. Raghu Raghavan, collaborating with Tata Institue of Social Sciences,  Swatantra Theater- Pune, Excavate Theatre Nothingam, and IHMP (NGO). Thus these institutions came together to work for research on such a social cause. We are involved with project as theatre is decided to be used as methodological  tool for the research. The research site and population chosen was migrants staying in  Pune.

Next month we would be completing almost two years working on the project as We prepare for the community play, that is play based on their stories (Basti population), performed by them. Recently Dhanashree Heblikar went to the UK parliament with her presentation on this project named "SUNO SUNO", Voices of internal Migrants. The Conclave in The UK, Parliament comprised people working for social change through art, from all over the world. Presentation from Swatantra Theatre was an audio visual document, an attempt to display our work in the community which was revived with reaction of an exemplified cheers. On second day, there was a discussion on how to work for global change in human society. Ideas and opinions were tasty from everyone present there and it was such an harmonious meeting that everybody shared their bit, their experience , emerging all present there. It was the time that our member present at the parliament realised that every one globally is working for better human society a their local level. Well that can and is truly the idea of one worldism and it could he woven by the thread of art and culture.

The biggest take away from this meet was one has to work with dedication, discipline and not for personal gains but for the country for our mother earth, because every sane human being is actually doing that not for himself but for all of us, and such global conclave how beautifully deactivated such an effort. Theater is truly reflection of the society as society is round the clock performed theatre!
