This event is over.
Life unfolds in many stages, each filled with its own wonders and lessons. From childhood to old age, and back again, every stage is a gift, and every moment is a miracle carefully held by nature.
In Circle of Life, an enchanting puppetry performance captures the minds of curious young audiences—without words. Through graceful movements and spellbinding imagery, the puppets reveal the beauty and wonders that surround us every day.
More than a performance, it’s a celebration of growth, imagination, and our delicate connection with the natural world. Gather your young ones and don’t miss this magical experience that inspires gratitude, joy and love for life and this Earth that we share.

Ranga Shankara’s AHA! Theatre for Children
Ranga Shankara is proud to be running one of the country’s most important, sustained theatre for children programmes—AHA! Theatre for Children. The programme is rooted in the conviction that early exposure to multifaceted learning opportunities helps children blossom into informed, creative and empathetic individuals. The plays produced offer visual, aural, verbal and physical stimulation, fostering creative thinking, imagination and problem-solving skills in young audiences.
Conveying complex topics to children is often challenging, but theatre makes it possible to communicate concepts like stereotypes, environmental conservation and life processes effectively. Theatre has proven to be a successful tool in instilling values such as kindness, empathy and collaboration in the youth.
In the light of growing concerns about the ever-decreasing attention span in the era of social media and other entertainment platforms, being an audience member at theatrical performances allows children to practice patience and develop appreciation for the performing arts.
