Mysuru, Apr. 8 (MK&TRR)- Veteran dramatist Dr. H.S. Shivaprakash has opined that theatre education centres must be practical and experimental and they should shun teaching on theories and ideologies. Ideologies have nothing to do with the truths of our land, said the veteran while speaking at the valedictory of a two-day seminar organised to commemorate World Theatre Day at Karnataka State Dr. Gangubai Hangal Music and Performing Arts University on Thursday.
Regretting that even the National School of Drama (NSD) is following the model of teaching theories on ideologies, Dr. Shivaprakash said that even other autonomous theatre training centres are also following the same model.
