Since time immemorial, drama has been used as a powerful medium to present creative imitations of the society and human conditions. It is considered as one of the most effective modes of communicating ideas and beliefs.
** Over the ages, street plays have evolved to accommodate the various facets of effective communication and have now become an effective medium of communication of social issues and help drive home the message well.
** They provide a forum for interaction and communication and their inclusive settings draws members of community regardless of age, cultural backgrounds and social barriers. The primary function of such a medium of communication is to provide information to the masses.
** Such forms of communication have thrived in the State since historical periods owing to its rich cultural heritage. Folk dramas, which consist of different types of plays and theatrical performances, are put up for the local audience and enjoy immense popularity.
** The relevance of drama as a form of communication was brought to the fore in Odisha when it was utilized during the Kargil war to instil patriotism in people residing in rural areas. Odisha, as a State, sees its own share of legal issues. More often than not, these issues are left unspoken about and unaddressed, and the populace is left o grapple with its own problems with no one to aid them
** The street play competition aspires to highlight some such problems faced by the community at large. The competition shall bring together law students from different parts of Odisha who shall showcase their awareness and understanding of such issue alongside their acting prowess
** The themes of the plays presented before the audience shall underscore contemporary and relevant legal issues. Addressing legal issues of such nature is of utmost importance and the street play competition aims at bringing them to light by generating consciousness and attempting to eradicate them.
