Russian State Institute of Theatre Arts (GITIS). This program involved exchange of academic and technical experts between Russian State Institute and Dhaka University. As part of this academic exchange, which involved Russian state directors, technicians and actors, cultural exchange through conduction of seminar, workshop, that resulted in a performance by the visiting Russian troupe at the Shilpakala Academy, Dhaka. During this academic exchange, different Russian schools of thought such as Stanislavsky, Meyerhold, Michael Chekhov, were given prominence. In a reciprocal gesture, I was invited by the Russian State Institute to hold lectures and workshops in Moscow where the students, theoreticians, and cultural experts took part.
