## About Our Annual Musicals & Recitals

Preparing for a production at the NCPA isn't just about polishing your piece. We manage the backstage nerves, the tech rehearsals, and the logistics of coordinating 50+ performers so that when you step under the spotlight, your only job is to play. It is high-pressure, incredibly chaotic, and absolutely worth every second.

Our performance philosophy is simple: practice is necessary, but the stage is where you truly grow. Every year, we put together massive productions that demand more than just technical skill. Whether it is 'Joie De Vivre' or our recent 'Sound of Emotions'—an Inside Out-inspired musical—we treat every show like a professional production.

We don't just host a small recital in a studio. We take over the Experimental Theatre at the NCPA in Mumbai. Our students, from age 3 to 75, learn how to handle professional microphones, manage lighting cues, and play with a full cast. 

We handle the 'chaos and dedication' behind the scenes so students learn genuine stage presence. We coordinate the mix of Western instruments, vocalists, and speech and drama students to create a cohesive show. For parents, this is a chance to see your child build confidence in front of a live audience. For our adult students, it is about breaking performance anxiety in a supportive, real-world setting. If you are looking to move beyond classroom drills and want to feel the energy of a live show, let's talk about which performance batch is right for you.

## About 88 - The Piano Academy

Shivani and I run this academy with one goal: sharing the joy of living and playing music. We are just two siblings who grew up with music in our home, and now we help our students—from toddlers to seniors—find that same spark on stage.
