DASTAK, launched in 2016 in Singapore, recently premiered its sixth edition in August 2023. Being Singapore's FIRST Hindi-theatre festival, it is a one-month extravaganza of creativity. It brings together over 80 dedicated cast and crew members on a singular platform, specially created for artists to showcase their multifaceted talents as actors, directors, playwrights, and technical support.

​

The festival offers more than just theatrical performances; it also features a series of enriching panel discussions and workshops conducted by renowned theatre practitioners. These workshops provide a platform for learning, skill development, along with fostering artistic growth and collaboration. After the month-long preparation, the festival culminates in an exhilarating showcase of plays, spanning an entire week, where the culmination of creative efforts takes center stage.

 

DASTAK is not merely a festival but an immersive and comprehensive celebration of Hindi

theatre, where artists and audiences alike come together to explore, learn, and appreciate the

diverse facets of this vibrant art form.
