The main purpose of Kolkatatheatre.com is to offer basic facts-at-fingertips about the theatre performances in Kolkata every week. Language and form of theatre no bar. Time and again friends and acquaintances have asked me what plays they can see on a certain date, or in the short term, or even long-term. Visitors from outside Kolkata have sought my recommendations too. It is embarrassing for Kolkata that we cannot name one place – whether newspapers or online – where they can find this information to enable them to decide what to see. Kolkatatheatre.com fills this vacuum.

If you can count ten or above, you must be a devotee or ardent supporter or theatre insider yourself. But if you score five or fewer, you don’t know what you’re missing, so read my reviews and catch up on the best of our stage art as soon as you can!

We request groups to contact us about their forthcoming performances in Kolkata with adequate advance notice so that we can upload these on a weekly basis. They should give the following details:
