NCPA partners with BMC to announce NCPA@ThePark

Mumbai’s premier arts and cultural institution, National Centre for the Performing Arts (NCPA) has partnered with Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) to announce ‘NCPA@ThePark’ – an initiative aimed to celebrate the return of live performances and performing arts in the city and welcome art enthusiasts back to theatres.

Kickstarting its first edition from 4th March 2022 at the Cooperage Bandstand, Fort, Mumbai. NCPA@ThePark will feature an exciting blend of events across music, dance, and poetry. Spread across the first two weekends of March, each performance will be showcased for an hour each and will be open to the public free of cost on a first come first serve basis as per current Covid norms.

Mr. Khushroo N Suntook, Chairman NCPA said, World-class cities are known for their residents' sustained engagement with the arts. It has been our endeavour at the NCPA to take quality performances to the people of Mumbai with the support of the authorities, and through our collaboration with the CSMVS, Prithvi Theatre, Kala Ghoda Arts Festival, etc. As the city emerges from its recent phase of restrictions, we are pleased to collaborate with the BMC on this initiative to resume performances not just in our theatres but also take them to the public. With the NCPA@ThePark initiative, we hope to spread the joy of live performances, which is irreplaceable.

Extending their support to this initiative, Mr. Iqbal Chahal, Municipal Commissioner of Mumbai said, “BMC is very happy to associate with NCPA for the NCPA@ThePark initiative. For the past two years, the city has suffered immensely due to Covid. With this initiative, we are trying to rejuvenate the spirit of Mumbai by adding a little dose of art and culture to it. 

Ms. Ashwini Bhide, Additional Municipal Commissioner of Mumbai said, “The complete performing arts industry has suffered immensely because of the lockdown. As the city is getting back to normal, NCPA@ThePark is aimed to support art and culture in the city.”
