[Mangang, Festival Director]:

"Theater in the state is reviving. There are also well-known theater artists in the state. If we put in more effort, we will be able to improve further and take part in international theater performances."

Organizers say the festival provides an opportunity for playwrights, directors, actors, and designers to come together and share their ideas.

The state of Manipur is known for its rich tradition of theater, which has been used as an important tool to highlight major social issues and create awareness in society.

The festival runs through Sunday.
