From the humble beginnings of a one-act play festival, the movement has grown into a round the year activity - with Thespo at Prithvi happening on the first Tuesday and Wednesday of every month and an Annual National Festival organised every December.
This year Thespo 12 will be held in December 2010 at Prithvi & NCPA Theatre. Announcing all the plans at the:
