DOUBLE BILL in Auckland from June 9
Krishnan’s Dairy touring to:
Kāpiti, Christchurch, Hamilton & Wellington from June 30
To mark their impressive 25-year milestone Indian Ink Theatre Company kicks off its five-centre national tour at Auckland’s Q Theatre on June 9.
This first tour stop in Auckland offers fans of Indian Ink the wonderful chance to experience a full nostalgia trip with a special Double Bill season of Krishnan’s Dairy and its sequel Mrs Krishnan’s Party. From the place the company first began its life in the shop front of the dairy, to the more recent storeroom party, Indian Ink celebrates its wild journey of theatrical life with two of its most revered plays - all in the spirit of serious laughter.
Krishnan’s Dairy is the play that launched the company back in 1997, where its premiere season took home the award for NZ Production of the Year. Created by company founders Jacob Rajan (writer and performer) and Justin Lewis (director), Krishnan’s Dairy has captivated audiences all over the globe.
Jumping over the counter, the Krishnan family story continues with Mrs Krishnan’s Party. Starring Kalyani Nagarajan and Justin Rogers this joyous celebration of life has thrilled audiences who become guests at the party as music is played and food is cooked live on stage. The drama unfolds alongside the party preparations in the story which serves up laughter with a generous side of human spirit.
Jacob Rajan, Kalyani Nagarajan and Justin Rogers are now available for interviews ahead of the double bill season.
