About

India has the most ancient tradition in theatre which goes back to 5,000 years ago. The earliest theatre form of India can be traced back to the Sanskrit theatre. Across centuries, many forms of Indian theatre abound. They can be broadly classified into six different genres: Classical Indian Dance Drama, Traditional Indian Theatre, Indian Folk Theatre, Indian Puppet Theatre, Modern Indian Theatre and Indian Street Theatre.

for interested students to hone their skills in acting, play-writing and directing, we have staged 150 skits and 2 full length dramas, namely Bon Voyage and Kanchana Seetha, since 2008.
