The Theatre for Theatre (TFT) group, established in 1988, has been instrumental in the space, staging numerous plays and organising theatre festivals, keeping the treasured art form alive.
Their Winter Theatre Festival has been a part of Chandigarh's cultural landscape since 2004. This year, the festival hosts its 10th edition, commencing on 25 January and running for five days. It will be held at the Randhawa Auditorium, Punjab Kala Bhawan, Sector 16, Chandigarh, with all shows starting at 6.30 p.m.
It has been dedicated to freedom fighter H.S. Bhatti who promoted Punjabi theatre in Mumbai through his group Punjab Kala Kendra, along with Balraj Sahni, and will feature performances from veteran thespians.
It will showcase plays such as Karan Baharam, Mithali Nari Char Rang, Sandhya Chhaya, Bakri, Sonata and Aadhe Adhure.
Sudesh Sharma, founder of the TFT group, director and actor told Guardian20, "We are also celebrating our 25th theatre festival since we formed, so we're doing all we can to make this edition successful and mesmerise the audiences with each show. "
