"Comrades, you have heard already about the strange dream that I had last night. But I will come to the dream later. I have something else to say first.

Originally the Manor Farm, animal farm was generated because the animals overthrew the human farmer, Mr. & Mrs. Jones, who they believed was treating them poorly. Mr. Jones fed the animals small rations of food and made them work long hours for which he just benefited from.

Abstract:- As the western influences of capitalism, existentialism and individual crisis in the times of the world wars, flowed into the arena of Eastern theater, adaptation of ancient, Elizabethan or modern works explored new vistas in the contemporary socio-political situation of 20th and 21st century India with the help of ancient ideas. This paper will try to access the development of western themes in front of the Indian backdrop in some Bengali adaptation.

In this particular production, two men roams about among the awaiting crowd outside the theater, holding a picture of a girl putting up her hands in the fear of gun, begging mercy.
