National School of Drama
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
National School of Drama (popularly shortened to NSD) is a training institute for theatre, located in New Delhi, India. It was established in 1959 under the auspices of Sangeet Natak Akademi. It became autonomous in 1975 and gained deemed university status in 2005.[1][2]
As a part of its operations, it also runs a repertory theatre. In a bid to decentralize its activities, NSD opened Regional Resource Centres (RRC) across India, the first of which was opened at Bangalore in 1994.
