Annual Day 2026 takes its name from the sutradhaar — the narrator-figure who holds a traditional Indian performance together, literally 'the one who holds the thread'.
Around 1,100 students across all four campuses are involved, which makes this the largest production the school has attempted. Every child in Nursery through Class 5 who wants to be on stage is on stage; there were no auditions for those years, by design.
The production is built around six regional performance traditions — Kuchipudi, Burrakatha, Perini, Kolattam, Oggu Katha and Dappu — taught by visiting practitioners over six weeks rather than choreographed by our own staff.
Two shows, 4:00 PM and 7:00 PM, Saturday 21 February. Ticket details are in Circular 2026/04.
