Hello readers! I'm writing this blog as an activity given by Kavisha ma'am from the Department of English, MKBU. It is about Creativity and Critical thinking. In this blog I am going to write about creative task skit performance.
Jonathan Swift was a greatest Satirist of the Neoclassical Period. He wrote Satirical verse during his time. This is our first attempt to create satire out of this skit. We do not know if this is satire or not but we tried our best. I hope you like our skit's script. This is a group task. We are a team of seven Me (Insiya) Kosha, Payal, Upasana, Ghansham, Drashti, Aarti.
FIRST SCENE:
(Hardships on Male)
(Drashti,ghanshyam,insiya)
(One boy Decides to sit on the bench which is reserved for girls in the classroom and, a few moments later the teacher enters in class P-1(student-1, Ghanshyam) greets the teacher along with the rest of the students.)
Teacher:(Drashti)
(with surprise and a bit of anger temper) Why? Rishi, why are you sitting on the girls' part? I know you are completely aware of the school rule that no boy is allowed to sit with girls.(the stick which she uses to punish the students)
P-1:(ghanshyam)
(with fright)Madam I thought that if a girl can wear what i can, if she can eat what i can, then why can’t I Sit with her and have a word of word?
Teacher:(Drashti)
(with widened eyeballs and somewhat daunting tone)Never think of doing such a solent act boy, ever again! Know only that she is a girl and you are a boy!
P-1:(ghanshyam)
(he murmurs)it is the fact everyone knows (stand quietly)
Teacher:(Drashti)
Hey, what are you murmuring? Do you have anything important to say?
P-2:(Insiya)
(with teasing will and enthusiasm)madam, he just said that everyone knows the fact that who can be called girl and who can be called boy?(upon this whole of the class laughed except teacher she seemed tensed and furious on P-1(ghanshyam)
Teacher:(Drashti)
How dare you break the rule! How dare you insult me in front of all the principal’s cabin with your parents tomorrow.
(ghanshyam stands helplessly and sad)
SECOND SCENE:
(gender discrimination)
(payal,Aarti,upasana,kosha)
(At outside of jail payal(P-1), upasana(P-2), Aarti(P - 3), wait for their companion to get freedom from punishment.)
P-1:(payal)
(with a jealous voice)Are garlands and firecrackers ready?
P-2:(upasana)
(with the same joy)Yes, how can we forget them?
P-3:(Aarti)
(with consoling words)Ah, she is coming, having done great work!
P-4:(kosha)
(coming out from the gate of jail) Bravo! My mates! I am happy that god was given me the reward of my deed (laughs) that was raping an extra-racial boy before 20 year, i am very happy now as i am proud of my deed. Ah, I am so happy! (Eats sweets from Aarti(P-3) and upasana’s(P-2) hands)
P-1:(payal)
(to all the three) let us go home and live the life of pride and valor.
(All leaves)
THIRD SCENE:
(Male gaze)
(Drashti as Sati and ghanshyam as Mahadev)
(in lofty peaks of snow mountain) MAHADEV(Ghanshyam) is sitting in meditation then SATI (Drashti) comes and puts some recently plucked flowers at MAHADEV’S (ghanshyam) feet.)
Mahadev:(ghanshyam)
(made up in an angry manner) oh don’t you see i am trying to concentrate my focus on myself? Please do not appear here again! Do not let your presence distract me. Go away! (again sits in meditation)
Sati:(Drashti)
(In an angry tone) Oh, is that so? You and your practice are equally null and void! They are not as strong as they are supposed to be, if my presence affects your practice it shows that my presence has more power than your practice!
Mahadev:(ghanshyam)
(save silence for himself and adjusts himself back to meditation murmuring the obscure language) she is correct there is weakness in me! Not in her!
(End of our skit)
In this skit we try to explore the weaknesses of our society. It's our attempt to write satire. We will perform this skit on stage.
