Zia Mohyeddin is no more, a great loss to Art & Culture and Pakistan.
Karachi, February 13, 2023: It is with profound sadness that the Board of Directors National Academy Performing Arts (NAPA) announces the passing of the President Emeritus of NAPA Zia Mohyeddin, an icon, a trailblazer & a thespian par excellence.
A brilliant teacher who mentored and trained numerous students of theatre, he was a committed professional and set the highest standards of academic excellence and integrity. His loss will be deeply felt by his students, colleagues, admirers and friends across the globe.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer and the entire NAPA fraternity, I extend deepest condolences to his wife Azra and his children Minos, Risha, Hassan and Aaliya.
