About Us
‘All the world's a stage, and all men and women are merely players.'
The great playwright William Shakespeare gave form to the act of drama with these words. Since the times of Aryabhatta and Plato, theatrical performances have been an integral fabric of the our culture. Milan recognizes the power of this art form to appeal to the emotions and imaginations of people and therefore, celebrates it through a number of competitions and events during its annual 4-day cultural extravaganza.
This Milan
Celebrating the oldest form of drama in India, "Nukkad Natak" brings the vibrant culture of Street plays alive. This form of drama also propagates social messages that are currently relevant, in tones that touch the audience's heart.
Glorifying the classical theatre, "Centre Stage" provides a platform for teams to perform a full set before their audience and awe them with their acting skills. Armed with colourful costumes, a thoughtful script and a variety of on-stage props, drama enthusiasts throng to this event.
The art of storytelling is often overlooked in drama. Hence, Milan presents the "Can You Act?" event, where the participant has to pick a gender, a prop, an emotion and spontaneously weave a tale from it and enact it. It poses a fascinating challenge for amateurs and experts alike, as the competition hinges on both, the dexterity of their plot and the vibrance of their acting.
Offline Events
From Caesar's Marc Anthony to Shylock, monologues have stole the spotlight time and time again. Often the success of an entire act depends on the performance of one crucial character. The "Spotlight" event for Milan allows the individual to flourish and gives them the opportunity to shine. The silver screen is the zenith of the art of acting. Milan presents its "Short Film Competition", which brings teams from all across the country to a showdown of their very own shot and directed video.
