Theatre Workshop

 

The theatre workshop held on 14 April and 15 April 2022 was a fun workshop on Street Theatre. Artist in Residence in collaboration with Rangmanch NU brought us an exclusive two-day workshop by the theatre world giant Shilpi Marwaha. Shilpi Mawaha is a respected personality in the Theatre world and is known for her fiery and outspoken Street Plays. Ms. Shilpi Mawaha has been with us at the University in 2014, 2017, and 2019 and she has also trained students of the university in the past. 

There was a lot of fun as students practiced for 2 days rigorously from 9 AM to 11 PM. The workshop helped students brainstorm and unveil the actors inside them in ways that astounded everyone. The main purpose of this workshop was to enjoy and learn, as practical experience in theatre teaches you a lot that conventional books and lectures are not capable of.  The workshop was incredibly fun and educational for all participants and also worked as a break from the stress of exams. 

Ms. Marwaha divided the participants into groups and made them develop their own short street plays on social topics. After IngeNUity 2022, the participants of the Street Play Workshop presented 3 plays to the university which were much appreciated by the audience.
