Street theatre in India is a well established ancient art from despite the
proliferation of modern means of entertainment and communication,
street theatre continues to flourish in India. Street theatre as a channel
of communication has for centuries been propagating reforms by high-
lighting social, economic and political issues present in the society. Un-
like in the olden days, its performance is no longer restricted to villages
or small localities of the city. Today small groups of performers includ-
ing students, would stage performances to mobilise public opinion or
to help create or raise awareness over a particular public importance.
Themes of substance abuse, AIDS awareness and domestic villages are
some of areas highlighted by contemporary street theatre troupe. Un-
like regular drama, street drama employs very little props and images.
The human body becomes the main tool in which choreography, mime,
dialogues, songs and slogans are extensively used. Street theatre is one
of the most intimate media. Its appeal is to the emotions leading to
quick psychological impact on audiences. By being local and live they
also are able to establish not only direct contact with the audience, but
by being cost-effective and flexible they are popular among all age
groups

Question Read the passage carefully and answer the questions.
The forces that generate conditions conducive to crime and riots are
stronger in urban communities than in rural areas. Urban living is
more anonymous living. It often releases the individual from commu-
nity restraints more common in tradition -oriented societies. But more
freedom from constraints and controls also provides greater freedom
to deviate And living in the more impersonalized, formally controlled
Urban Society means that regulatory orders of conduct are often di-
rected by distant bureaucrats. The police are strangers executing these
prescriptions on an anonymous set of subjects. Minor offences in small
town or village are often handled without resort to official police ac-
tion. As disputable as such action may seem to be, it results in fewer
recorded violations of the law compared to the big cities. Although per-
haps causing some decision difficulties for the police in the small town,
formal and objective law enforcement is not always acceptable to vil-
lagers. Urban areas with mass population, greater wealth, more com-
mercial establishments and more products of our technology also pro-
vide more frequent opportunities for theft. Victims are impersonalized,
property is insured. consumer goods in more abundance are vividly
displayed and are more portable. The crime-rate increases despite for-
mal moral education given in schools.
