Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], July 11: Ryan Group of Institutions marked the beginning of its Golden Jubilee celebrations with the grand staging of The Mumbai Revue, an original musical production at the prestigious Studio Theatre, Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre (NMACC), Mumbai, on 7 July 2026.
Presented as the opening event commemorating 50 years of educational excellence, the production brought together exceptionally talented students from Ryan campuses across Mumbai in a vibrant celebration of music, theatre and storytelling. More than a performance, The Mumbai Revue was the culmination of an intensive four-day Performance Lab, where students underwent professional musical theatre training under the guidance of internationally trained multidisciplinary artist and director Tiara Oberoi.
The evening was graced by Dr. Grace Pinto, Managing Director, Ryan Group of Institutions; Dr. Snehal Pinto, Director; Ms. Sonal Pinto, Director; and Ms. Liz Samuel.
International-Standard Training Meets Young Talent
In the days leading up to the production, 28 Ryan students participated in the immersive Performance Lab, a four-day musical theatre intensive designed to introduce young performers to the discipline, rigour and standards of professional theatre. The programme focused on acting, vocal performance, movement, stagecraft, audition techniques and ensemble rehearsals, equipping students with skills that extended far beyond the stage.
The training culminated in the live staging of The Mumbai Revue, marking the directorial debut of Tiara Oberoi, with live musical accompaniment by pianist Anaya Grace. The students opened the evening with a spirited rendition of "Any Dream Will Do," setting the tone for an engaging musical journey that featured eight songs seamlessly woven into the production. Under Tiara's creative direction, the young performers delivered a polished and emotionally engaging showcase with dynamic choreography, powerful vocals and compelling storytelling.
