NCPA

You cannot have missed the NCPA if you’ve been to Bombay. The widely known cultural institute lies at the heart of the city at Nariman Point. It was established with the mission to keep the country’s cultural heritage and arts alive. A multitude of events in all spaces are held at the NCPA every year ranging from music, dance, theatre, film screenings, workshops, exhibitions, seminars and more. It’s the cultural storehouse of India.

Kaleidoscope has been associating with the NCPA to celebrate and maintain the performing arts. The aesthetic venue hosts over 600 performances every year and is India’s largest art centre. Last year the winners of the event Mano Ya Na Mano; a Hindi play event at K’scope, went back with the chance to perform at the National Centre for Performing Arts. We believe it when the NCPA says “Performances become inspired when they spring from deep within”, its efforts in exploring this idea have stirred us.

Our culture will never be lost because of the archives NCPA has built for us which not only consists of arts of India but also what we’ve absorbed through interactions with the arts globally. Their initiatives have changed the way we look and appreciate art, so be sure to visit the theatre because the line-up of events to be held are promising.
