About Rangmanch
Rangmanch Cincy is a dynamic collective of over 40 passionate volunteers hailing from Cincinnati. Our ensemble is a vibrant mix of cast and crew, featuring 13 adult actors, 12 child actors, and numerous behind-the-scenes artists. Together, we channel our love for performing arts into acting, dancing, singing, playing musical instruments, painting, and much more. Our creativity finds expression in various forms, from customizing costumes to makeup, crafting props, building sets, and ultimately bringing stories to life on stage.
As a nonprofit organization, we are driven by a clear vision: to bring forth engaging theatrical stories that capture the diverse languages, authors, and cultures of the Indian subcontinent. We aim to inspire creativity and intellectual curiosity, rooted in the rich history and wisdom of our heritage. Our desire is to build a vibrant community of talented and enthusiastic artists, offering them an environment that fosters innovation and ideas that resonate with audiences across generations and backgrounds.
Our inaugural production, “Kauon Ki Paathshala,” marked a significant milestone, with two house-full live shows that delighted audiences. This successful debut serves as a testament to the creativity, dedication, and unity of our team. We strive to amplify and celebrate individual and collective voices, promoting compassionate understanding through the arts. By fostering such a diverse artistic community, we aim to cultivate a sense of unity and inspire audiences to explore the richness of Indian culture.
