Divya is a creative warrior and a performance artiste. Her work is strongly driven by intuition and inspired by storytelling, rituals, healing & spirituality.

Divya holds an MFA in Theatre Arts from Towson University, Maryland. She is a student of the Margolis Method and is in the cohort of emerging directors at The Shattered Glass Project’s 2023-2024 Incubator/Mentor program. She is also a TAT Lab graduate and teaches storytelling, theatre and arts-integrated curriculum to youth in schools and communities.

She has a penchant for creating non-traditional performances. ‘Salt for the Soul’ & ‘Tales of Thresholds’ are two such ritual performances she offers through Epiphany Sutra. She co-devised an interactive piece for Finding Trails in 2022 that was site-specific to a Seattle public park. ‘A labyrinth and its myriad mirages’ a wholly devised and experimental psychological myth premiered with Pratidhwani’s THRICE.

Her past one-woman performances include adaptations of Tagore’s Kabuliwallah and Kingdom of Cards; and Manto’s Ten Rupees. Breaking the fourth wall is her signature performance style.

She has worked with Theatre Nisha in English and Hindi productions as a lighting designer and actor including stories of Asghar Wajahat and an adaptation of the Ramayana.

She was the festival director and co-producer of Short + Sweet Theatre Manila (Philippines) for four years. She is also a trained cinematographer, a certified Scuba diver and a Reiki healer.
