Dhiya Aiyer - Stage Fright to Stage Flight?

The Playground

Theater can open many doors - to the worlds inside of you and outside of you.

Dhiya Aiyer is a theatrical student who loves being on stage. Her life was transformed on stage during her first play when she realized her social anxiety was gone and her true self appeared.

The liberation on stage is the essence of Dhiya’s life and the freedom she feels while creating using drama is helping her discover more deeper levels of herself and society. Her personal growth is tied to the stage and storytelling and her goal is to explore drama even more because not all about drama is acting - there are so many paths and branches to learn from. Self-expression through creativity in theater is huge, and for Dhiya it is important to be eccentric and authentic. The joy of imagination in theater is limitless - try it out.
