What Do We Do?
Chakravyu Performing Arts (CPA) has the aim of not only making theatre of excellence for a global stage but also of creating sustainable pathways for Indian artists.
We achieve this by employing the best available talents and by delivering professional developments and training of the highest standards, ensuring that the artists and personnel that work with us are respected and nurtured to be their best.
The works we curate to produce are universal and accessible. We understand the power of theatre and the arts and we relish the opportunities theatre gives us to promote truths, entertain, provoke thought, to educate and to take creative risks
The Name
The ‘Chakravyuh’ in Mahabharat was an excellent formation made up of a large number of soldiers standing together in a spiral shape, which became harder to conquer as a person reached to the inner layers.
At CPA, we have taken this extraordinary concept and strategy of a war and put it into the very positive arena of the arts. Our maze is one of creative excellence and one we hope our audiences will delight in.
We know that art influences society by changing opinions, instilling values and translating experiences across space and time and we are dedicated to bringing only the best to our stages, our studios..
