Lit Lantern for Culture & Literature Welfare Society, a registered non-profit body, will be organising the inaugural edition of the Vizag Junior Theatre Fest (VJTF) in a bid to emphasise the importance of the theatre arts. Happening on 21 and 22 January 2023, this entertaining affair will be hosted at the VMRDA Children’s Arena in Siripuram.
Speaking to the media here in Vizag at the poster launch event, Sandhya Godey, one of the brains behind Lit Lantern, expressed that VJTF aims to enhance exposure to the theatre arts among the kids. Further, she remarked that the event would be a breath of fresh air to the younger ones in a city where entertainment is limited to the beach and movies.
In the past, Lit Latern organised literature fests that saw the participation of renowned authors and storytellers. After a gap of two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the organisers are back with the Vizag Junior Theatre Fest, which includes plays, clowns and much more.
