Celebrating Theatre Series

 

'Celebrating Theatre’ is a popular series of onstage conversations, workshops and interactive sessions designed to inculcate theatre awareness amongst the theatre and arts fraternity and the media in Hyderabad. The series is conducted alternately with a production, where an eminent guest speaker shares experiences, views, and opinions with a mixed audience, followed by an interactive question-answer session in an open, informal environment. The series began in 2006 and has been conceived and designed by Mohammad Ali Baig. It is a unique platform in the country where participants/audiences avail an opportunity to interact freely with renowned personalities and experts of various artistic disciplines.
