Regional arts and culture forms still continue to be central to the audience`s interest. Despite the rise in films and OTT we choose to indulge in some beautiful art forms like regional theatre. Born out of the objective to inspire, encourage, and support Marathi theatre, the NCPA`s Pratibimb Marathi Natya Utsav returns this summer from May 5-7.
Bruce Guthrie, Head of Theatre and Films said: "The NCPA is proud to announce that Pratibimb Marathi Natya Utsav 2023 will open with the winning entry of Darpan. At the 2022 festival, we announced our intention for the festival to support new work in Marathi. It is vitally important that the craft of playwriting and the creation of original work be celebrated and supported, and we thank Shilpa Kumar for her wonderful support and her enthusiasm for Marathi Theatre at the NCPA."
