Canadian theatre has always been an exercise in inter-cultural negotiation, yet in the past few decades, the official multicultural legislation has provided opportunities for more artists belonging to ethnic minorities to consciously diversify our country’s theatre practice. Montreal based Indo-Canadian playwrights like Uma Parmeshwaran, Rana Bose, Rahul Varma have been leading figures in creating intracultural theatre, which seeks to question the discourse of multiculturalism. Rahul Varma along with his company TeesriDuniya Theatre, whose mandate is to produce socially and politically minded theatre that reflects Canada’s diversity, Rahul Varma has staged plays such as 'Counter Offence', 'No Man's Land', 'Bhopal' 'Equal Wages', Land Where The Trees Talk', etc. in order to create counter discursive spaces where the audience may examine ‘benign’ forces such as multiculturalism. His plays' dealt with racism, gender equality, identity crisis, Native Land Rights, work-place hazards, wife battering, and environmental colonialism among others. The present paper ventures to show Multiculturalism in the plays of Rahul Varma.
