Storytelling is one of the most interesting and involving forms of communication. Unluckily our education system does not lay sufficient emphasis to develop this skill in children. Since eternity, our ancestors have been passing down their cultural heritage to us through stories alone. Stories are what spike our interest in the lives and experiences of others. When we add theatre to the mix, it results in a beautiful amalgamation of the two arts. Kids are far more curious and expressive than adults. Hence they can hone these skills at a very young age. And if they do, it will have a tremendous influence on them in their growing years. Their creativity will outshine rather than be suppressed. In our kids workshop for storytelling and theatre in Bangalore we will cover all the nuances of storytelling, writing, acting, performing and theatre presentation in a carefully curated series of classes by our in-house expert facilitators. In theatre, we will guide them how to do a presentation on...

Photography is one of the most popular mediums for sharing stories and information. In the words of John Berger “Seeing comes before words”. People tend to trust photographs more than words. When making photographs, one creates a portal to a moment, a memory or an instance in time. We can revisit it repeatedly to learn and discover things about ourselves and our world. Photographs allow us to document our times, preserve our past, spread awareness and educate us on how we can impact our future. We have a better access to cameras, lenses and sharing platforms now. Therefore it has become very easy for almost everyone to shoot. We are able to record how light interacts with our surroundings and we all perceive it differently. Now anyone can share their photographs, create a conversation and sometimes even trigger a change. In our world, the visual narratives take precedence over written word or speech.
