BringingBackTheJoy
Shaili Sathyu, founder of Gillo TheatreRepertory which exclusively makes Theatre for Young Audiences, notes the many challenges that come from working with young people online. “If your only relationship with a group of children has been in the online space, it is very difficult to hold their attention and keep them engaged.” Shaili noticed that she was always competing with other screens or entertainment in the home for the students’ attention.

According to Anurupa, the system of education in India is hyper-focused on cognitive learning and teaching hard facts, maths, science, and numbers. In this very mainstream way of teaching, many kinds of learners get left behind by their peers. As a puppeteer, Anurupa tries to use puppetry and the arts for students that have been dismissed by the system to be slow learners. By introducing them to the arts, “Students have the space to express and engage with the world sensorily, emotionally, kinesthetically, spatially, linguistically, and musically, which grows their cognitive skills.
