- “In Search of Goddess Sitala” is a multimedia theatre performance that reflects on the lives of the contemporary female impersonators in “Sitala Jatra” beyond their performative gait.
- Sitala Jatra or Sitala Mangal, is a rich and diverse performance ritual mostly performed in the rural parts of West Bengal which is now on the verge of a major crisis.
- Sitala (from sital, meaning cool; literally, the cool one), a non-Aryan deity, is the much-dreaded goddess or mother of spring diseases. “Sitala Pala” depicts the story of Goddess Sitala‘s desperation to attain godship from the people of this planet through her worship by the arrogant and boisterous King Birat of MatysaNagar.
In yesteryears, legendary female impersonators like Bonophool and Chapal Rani performed in Sitala Jatra.
