Take a wild ride to Paradise
Award-winning theatre company Indian Ink comes to Upper Hutt next week (5-7 August) with their powerful new play Paradise or the Impermanence of Ice Cream.
This glorious production is inspired by Ernest Becker’s Pulitzer prize-winning Denial of Death, and the vibrant, life–filled chaos of India’s most cosmopolitan city, Mumbai. Jacob Rajan delivers a dazzling solo performance as he channels seven characters, weaving the afterlife and a dash of Bollywood disco into the real life mystery of India’s vanishing vultures. Infused with serious laughter, exquisite puppetry and inspired sound design this show will blow your mind and melt your heart.
