The Sutradhar Theatre Program is a comprehensive workshop designed to take students from script to stage. Through a structured and hands-on approach, students learn the fundamentals of theatre including voice, movement, character development, and stage production.

Participants explore how to read and analyse scripts, build characters, and bring stories to life through performance. The program also introduces elements of direction, staging, and backstage coordination, helping students understand how a complete theatre production comes together.

With a strong focus on creativity, collaboration, and confidence-building, the program empowers students to express themselves freely and perform with clarity and presence. The workshop concludes with a final stage performance showcasing their learning.
