Guru Of Chai, The

Synopsis:
are you looking for meaning in your life? Maybe you are looking for love . . . or a new love? a better cellphone, a faster, more reliable internet connection or even, like the hero of our story, you are searching for the magic you feel is missing from your life. Theatrical magician and award-winning actor Jacob Rajan brings to life a delicious brew of colourful characters - from a poor young girl with a heavenly voice, a shady thug, an ambitious policeman to a desirable stuffed parrot and of course the guru with his dubious talents. The Guru of Chai is an adaptation of a traditional Indian folk tale, blended here with live music, puppetry and the effervescent charm of Indian Ink's magical staging. a young girl is abandoned at an Indian railway station and brings the place to a standstill with the beauty of her singing. an honest young policeman falls hopelessly in love with her but is rejected in favour of a disreputable poet. Modern India is the backdrop to this piece about the power of story and the dangers of keeping your soul in a cage; be careful what you wish for it might just come true!
