Promotion of Tiatr Through Academic Activities(PTTAA)
Overview
About PTTAA
Promotion of Tiatr Through Academic Activities is a scheme run by the Directorate of Art and Culture, Government of Goa. Tiatr is a Konkani-language musical theatre form native to Goa, and the scheme works to build interest in it away from the stage, through academic events.
Support under the scheme is given in kind rather than as a cash award. The Directorate backs talks, symposia, seminars and workshops on Tiatr, covering the cost of holding these activities, an honorarium for the resource persons who lead them, and the reference material they call for. The state's dedicated body for the form is the Tiatr Academy of Goa, established in 2009 under the Directorate of Art and Culture, which conducts workshops in educational institutions and festivals across Goa.
The scheme is meant for students and enthusiasts of Tiatr, and it is open to both individuals and educational institutions that organise or take part in these academic activities. If you want to run a seminar or workshop on the form, this is the channel the Directorate uses to support it.
