Aa Ba Ka Da Cultural Group

AaBaKaDa is a cultural group. The alphabets represent an initial introduction to the Marathi language. New learners of the language grapple with these letters in their infancy. The group would like to use this very same concept to help initiate audiences to experiment and experience the ecstasy of theatre, music and dance.

Once upon a time, the city of Sangli was known as 'Natya Pandhari'. Unfortunately, Sangli of `Natyapandhari’ fame had disappeared. It was a time when disappointed theatre lovers turned their back on drama, music and dance in despair. We came together to fill this void. Deep down we knew that music is the need of any society.

On November the sixth 1990 the organization was inaugurated by eminent theatre personality Shri Nilu Phule and distinguished dramatist Late Shri Vasant Kanetkar. AaBaKaDa is an organization committed to preserve the tradition of the performing arts both old and new. This is an appeal for financial assistance to support our endeavor to construct the ‘Aa Ba Ka Da’- The Creative Arts Center complex in Sangli.
