Theatre & Drama (Natak) Shows in Kathmandu

Kathmandu keeps a living stage running all year. Mandala Theatre in Anamnagar and Shilpee Theatre near Battisputali anchor the scene, staging original Nepali natak, adaptations of world drama, and festival runs like NITFest that pull in companies from across the country and abroad. This page tracks what is actually on stage right now — productions, one-night performances and full festival lineups, with venues, dates and tickets.

Theatre here overlaps closely with the wider arts calendar. If a particular run has wrapped, browse cultural events and art events across the valley, or see the full list of things to do in Kathmandu.
