The National School of Drama is one of the foremost theatre training institutions in the world and the only one of its kind in India. It was set up by Sangeet Natak Akademi in 1959 as one of its constituent units. In 1975, it became an independent entity and was registered as an autonomous organisation.
Besides its 3-year training programme, the School has also explored new vistas in the areas of children’s theatre and decentralisation of theatre training through workshops under the Extension Programme. The School has two performing wings: The Repertory Company and the Theatre-in-Education Company. In addition to these two wings, the School also has an active Extension Programme, a publication section and a literary forum named Shruti.
