摘要：Bertolt Brecht is a bewildering figure in the field of drama. Brechtian theory of epic theatre became so popular that its influence reached far beyond the communist countries. Since earlier period of Marathi theatre, this concept of epic-drama with A-effect theory was already implicit in .Tamasha.- Folk Art form of Marathi tradition. The main purpose of this paper is to see whether Brecht.s theory of alienation A-effect and concept of .epic-drama. was already implicit in Tamasha form in Marathi theatre. If we allude to the historical background and the history of development of European drama and Marathi dramatic tradition, we can see that the changing conditions of society inspired Brecht to think differently about dramatic form which resulted in bringing out a new technique with a new theory and it influenced the whole world theatre including Marathi theatre of the time onwards
