NEW DELHI: The National Science Drama Festival, one of the premier events of the National Council of Science Museums (NCSM), will be held on December 27-28 in Delhi, the government said on Tuesday. "The intersection of science and literature shapes thinking, while science communication through diverse media cultivates a scientific mindset, countering misinformation and superstition, and fostering informed citizens in today's world," the Ministry of Culture said in a statement.
The NCSM has embraced innovative tools, with drama being a notable one. Through collaborations with theatre professionals, this medium has successfully conveyed the essence of science, engaging audiences in dynamic and interactive ways, it said.
"It is hence expected like previous editions, this year's festival shall witness enthusiastic participation, vibrant performances, and compelling plays by talented young students," the statement said.
