Project Description
TAMASHA
Tamasha – Theatre for Young Audiences aims to inspire the culture of theatre for young audiences in Pakistan.
It encompasses development of children and youth in the art of performance using arts education approaches to learning personal and social skills.
Tamasha produces and presents Theatre for Young Audiences (TYA), a branch of theatre arts that encompasses all forms of theatre that are attended by or created for younger audiences.
Tamasha provides training leading to high-quality theatre productions for students in schools, colleges and universities. Our performing arts workshop uses theatre as a process of transformation, psycho-social connections and intellectual development of students with the overall objective to build creative self, confidence and personality development of children and youth.
