The Rebel Unsung
Director Note: The Play is an attempt to profile the life of a selfless patriot.
A BANIAN REPERTORY THEATRE PRODUCTION
The play : It was a time in the first quarter of the 19th century when Manipur was reeling under Burmese occupation forces.
As the prices are locked in internal squabbles small resistance bands were fighting the occupation forces in pockets of their influences. But they were not united.
Thoiba wanted to unite the groups and wage a united struggle, which the princes did not want. Thoiba was a rebel leader in his own right.
He did not have kingly aspirations. Supreme sacrifices for the motherland that he loved so much was his sole aim.
Finally he was betrayed and shot dead by another rebel.
