The Drama School, Mumbai

Drama School Mumbai Logo

Title
Project Co-ordinator

Location

Mumbai, India

Commitment & Duration
Full-time, 2 years

Background
In July 2013, Theatre Professionals founded The Drama School, Mumbai. A school in the heart of South Mumbai, its two-fold aim: to forge a new generation of theatre makers; individuals who see themselves as actor-creator-entrepreneurs, who will go on in their careers to perform, create and produce work to a new standard of storytelling, and to promote the awareness of theatre and its processes to a wider audience interested in exploring and understanding the medium for themselves.

The Drama School, Mumbai was born out of an urgent need. At a time formal contemporary training in the craft of theatre in India is sorely lacking, and opportunities to go abroad to other centres of dramatic excellence is out of reach for many. Fortunately, we are now at a time where a critical mass of highly-accomplished, highly-trained drama instructors (all of whom actively and regularly perform as well) are located in Mumbai, and jointly are ready and excited to come together as the faculty to make this programme a reality.

DSM lives up to its motto of 'Forging the next generation of Theatremakers' by being the only place in India where one can find a post-graduate certificate course in acting, theatre-making and theatre entrepreneurship in India. 


Currently, DSM offers a One Year Full-Time Certificate Course in Acting and Theatre-making (OYCC), numerous monthly workshops, and the India Theatre Programme (ITP) residency at Adishakti. Future plans include the one-year course growing into a two-year programme, developing long term part-time evening courses, building festivals and other activities that promote the programmes offered by DSM, and gaining university or tertiary institute certification from a competent certifying body.
