Ranga Shankara
JP Nagar's 320-seat thrust-stage theatre. A play a day, six days a week, mostly in Kannada, tickets cheap by design.
why we keep going,
Hosts around 400 plays a year. Mondays dark; every other evening has something on the stage.
Mostly Kannada plays but they've staged work in 23 other languages too. The acoustics let actors skip amplification entirely.
The annual November theatre festival is the one to clear your calendar for. Tickets sell out the week before.
local context
Opened in 2004, built by Arundhati Nag in memory of her husband Shankar Nag; run by the Sanket Trust on a strict policy of keeping ticket prices low.
