The interactive drama show was performed by Somporker Noya Setu in partnership with ActionAid Bangladesh on 28th October 2004. SNS performed an interactive theatre drama show for the national launch of the safe cities for women campaign. For this initiative, ActionAid Bangladesh provided technical and financial support to organize and materialize the drama show.
The objective of that drama show was,
- To perform and build awareness of the difficulties faced by women as they face sexual harassment in the public places of the city due to the lack of enabling factors such as gender-responsive public services, social security, etc.
- To create awareness and accountability amongst the audience on the issues of gender equity and safe cities for women through interactive and participatory method theatre.
The major responsibilities of Somporker Noya Setu in this theatre were-
- Writing and finalization of the script based on the feedback of AAB
- Organizing all actors and logistics and ensuring proper rehearsals
- Performing a dress rehearsal before the final performance
- Arranging all the logistics for performers including make-up, costumes, and a vehicle for the day of that performance
- Delivering the drama show on the day of the launch.
