Theatre repertory Rangayana has chalked out a series of programmes to mark the birth anniversary of playwright and doyen of theatre B.V. Karanth as well as Dasara celebrations over the next 17 days in Mysuru.
The programmes will commence from September 19 which is being celebrated as ‘’Bharatiya Rangasangeetha Dina’’ (Indian Theatre Music Day) to commemorate the birth anniversary of the late Karanth, who was also the first director of Rangayana.
Sharing details of the forthcoming programmes, Mr. Addanda C Cariappa, Director of Rangayana, said the contribution of Karanth to the field of theatre and culture was immense. Hence, since the last two years, his birth anniversary was being celebrated with a Ranga Sangeethothsava or theatre music festival and this year, too, it will be celebrated in a befitting manner, he said.
