Theatre is important in many ways since it promotes education and opens young minds to new vocabulary and communication methods. Keeping these benefits in mind a 15-day theatre workshop for college students was organised by Jammu and Kashmir Academy of Art Culture and Languages in collaboration with the Kalidas Theatre and Government Degree College Hyderpora in Srinagar.
The aim of the workshop was for the students to get in touch with their creative and theatrical side, as part of intensive and interactive theatre workshops. The effort of the Academy of Art Culture and Language is to take education and learning beyond classrooms.
M K Raina, a famous Indian theatre actor and director instructed students on the techniques of theatre. “We are educating college students about theatre, where they will be exposed to the great world of creativity and invention. The pupils here are also quite interested in learning about it, and it will enable them to become more confident and avoid timidity,” Raina told ANI.
