Question 3
English translation
Shibly was admit t ed in Dhaka Govt College af t er t he complet ion of his school lif e.
While he was a 1st year st udent in t he college, alongside his st udies, he st art ed
writ ing in a variet y of magazines; st ories, poems, f ilm crit ique and so on. Those were
published in dif f erent magazines.
Two years of Shibly’ s lif e went by t his way. He passed his higher secondary
examinat ion wit h dist inct ion. Unt il t hen, he had not decided t hat he would st udy on
t he t heat re perf ormances' course. He had a desire t o st udy Economics in t he Dhaka
Universit y. However his desire was not f ulf illed as he could not do well in t he
admission t est . He t hen had a chance t o get admission in t he t heat re perf ormances'
course. Shibly realised af t er t he f ew init ial lessons t hat t he diverse t heat re t opics
were at t ract ing him st rongly.
Af t erwards, he t ruly got int o t he t heat re plays; he st art ed t ranslat ing t he plays.
St art ing f rom Shakespeare's play, he also t ranslat ed cert ain f amous plays f rom t he
world of lit erat ure. He t hen st art ed writ ing t he script s of t he plays on his own.
Alongside, Shibly also had t he f irst lesson (sacrament ) t o direct t heat re plays.
Anyway, he succeeded t o pass his graduat ion and post graduat e degrees and achieved
1st class at bot h st ages.
From t hen, t his young dramat ist / script writ er devot ed whole-heart edly in direct ing
st age plays. He had many plans, lot s of dreams about plays. On a t elevision int erview
recent ly, he st at ed boldly, "I want t he publicit y and expansion of t he Bangladeshi
t heat re perf ormances t o be widely spread t hroughout t he world. Courses on
perf orming art s need t o be st art ed at least in t he public universit ies if not in all
universit ies. We not only should use our own ingredient s; we also need t o borrow
ingredient s f rom count ries all over t he world. Our plays should be unique and
dedicat ed t o t he new generat ion.
