Theatre Nisha believes that theatre is inherent to humans, and is one of the most potent tools to achieve self-actualisation. Inspired by the cornerstones of instinct, intuition, impulse and imagination, the company produces plays and conducts workshops and training sessions for actors, teachers, students and corporates. Theatre Nisha has produced over 100 plays in 21 years and worked with over 70 schools and organisations towards this endeavour.
