Abstract
The unprecedented global medical emergency in the form of COVID19 (Corona Virus Disease, 2019) originating from China in the year 2019 led different governments around the world to impose economic lockdown during the year 2020 and again in 2021. Assam, as a component state of India has also gone through this policy in order to contain this deadly disease. Economic lockdown and restrictions on movement of people, in one hand, have somewhat succeeded in containing the spread of COVID19, but on the other hand, it has adversely affected the income opportunities of people to a large extent in various spheres of occupation.
In this paper an attempt has been made to discuss the impact of COVID19 on Mobile Theatres which is one very unique narrative artform of this state. Based on both primary survey and secondary data, this descriptive study has been divided into two parts: Part Aand Part B.
Part A includes Introduction, Background of Mobile theatre,Objective and Methodology and Part B includes Discussion and Conclusion of the study.
