Heritage Stories & Performing Arts
Who We Are
Honouring India's artistic legacy, ensuring its treasures continue to inspire and educate across time and space.
HSPA is an initiative established with the intent to celebrate Indian cultural heritage, share and transfer heritage knowledge through the captivating world of Stories and Performing Arts.
We seek to unearth forgotten narratives, celebrate timeless traditions, and share the profound knowledge embedded in our history. Through immersive, one-of-a-kind events, workshops and performances, HSPA connects us all a little bit closer to our roots.
Celebrate — We honour the richness of Indian cultural heritage through curated events, performances and festivals that bring living traditions into the present.
Share — We create spaces for heritage knowledge to flow across generations — through storytelling, workshops, and experiential learning for all ages.
Conserve — We document, archive and advocate for the preservation of performing arts traditions that face the risk of being lost to time.
Over six years, HSPA has curated 50+ events across Mumbai, Chennai and Bengaluru, reaching over 3,000 participants.
From intimate women's circles to large heritage walks and storytelling festivals, HSPA has created a vibrant community of heritage custodians and performing arts enthusiasts.
Our work spans Storytelling, Theatre, Classical Dance, Heritage Walks, Guided Meditation and Art-Based Reflection.
What's On
Visual Stories
The Founder
An individual committed to leading a life of diversity and authenticity, Sarita Nair adorns several hats, including those of a Performance Artist, Theatre Practitioner, Facilitator and Curator.
She embarked on a journey of self-discovery as a Post Graduate in Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Management, progressing through Healthcare Advertising and finally Storytelling and Theatre — a path that was anything but linear, yet profoundly intentional.
Sarita is the founder of Stomp! The Drama Club, where she empowers children through performing arts to develop empathy, compassion, and values. Her belief in the transformative power of theatre has shaped her work with young minds across the country.
Her love for Performing Arts and faith in its impact towards bringing social change led to the formation of Heritage Stories & Performing Arts (HSPA) — a platform dedicated to celebrating Indian cultural heritage and transferring heritage knowledge through the captivating world of stories and performing arts.
"Stories are the threads that weave generations together. When we tell them, we live. When we listen, we belong."
