Indian People's Theatre Association (IPTA)

The Indian People's Theatre Association (IPTA) is a cultural organization founded in 1943 in India, aimed at promoting social awareness through theatre. It emerged as a response to the political and social challenges of the time, particularly during the struggle for independence from British rule. IPTA brings together artists, playwrights, and performers to create plays that address social issues, such as inequality and injustice. The organization seeks to make theatre accessible to everyone, using it as a tool for education and social change, fostering a sense of community and artistic expression across diverse audiences.
