Writing Experience

Creative Practice and Biography

Dr. Mou Chakraborty works across writing, editing, translation, and research. Her practice centres on women’s experiences, labour, and social justice within Bengali storytelling. Regional realities inform her work, yet her themes engage broader questions of gender, resilience, and memory.

She holds a Master’s degree in Script Writing from Rabindra Bharati University and a Ph.D. in Theatre from Visva-Bharati University (2023). Her doctoral dissertation, “The Protesting Entity of Group Theatre Actresses in the Context of Twentieth Century Social Progress,” informs her literary and research practice, where narrative operates as both documentation and resistance.

She has authored seven books, co-authored one, and edited two. Sixteen research papers have been published, with additional work accepted for publication. She has written over 200 critical essays on theatre and culture and published more than fifty short stories. She has presented at twelve national and international seminars.

She has been a guest speaker at the North American Bengali Conference (NABC 2025) and the Bharat-Bangladesh Sahitya Utsab (2023), and has served as an Examiner in Script Writing and Drama at Rabindra Bharati University.

Her current projects include translating theatre history and selected works of Rabindranath Tagore and Jibanananda Das into English, positioning translation as an ethical and archival practice that carries voices across language and geography.
