Ranga Shankara
320-seat theatre run by Sanket Trust, opened in 2004 in memory of Shankar Nag, with a policy of at least one play a day, six days a week, in many languages.
Why it’s worth it
Its play-a-day calendar, plus festivals such as the AHA! children's theatre festival in May 2026, means something is on most evenings except Mondays.
