The 14th Annual Pearl Padamsee Trophy for Excellence in Speech and Drama

The Pearl Padamsee annual elocution competition is a much awaited event, by schools across Mumbai. This keenly contested competition revolves around a preset theme and the theme for this year was, 'The Good, the Bad & the Cyber'.

 

 

After a round of eliminations, the selected few showcased their talent before a panel of esteemed and eminent judges from the world of theatre. This year’s jury comprised of renowned theatre and drama personalities including Sabira Merchant, Dalip Tahil, Farid Currim and Kunal Vijayakar. We were lucky to send up 3 out of the 15 finalists, including Ranbir Dhall of 3B, Siddhant Mehendale of 4A and Krisha Singhal of 7A. Our children skillfully incorporated acting, with apt costumes and props, into their original elocution pieces.

DAIS was the proud winner of two trophies:

 

 

Ranbir Dhall- 1st runner up (7-9 years age category)

 

Krisha Singhal-1st runner up (10-13 years age category)

 

Congratulations to our young budding artists!
