The contradictions of modern India, with its iPhones and ancient gods, come alive in this much-loved play from one of New Zealand’s finest performers.
A poor chai-wallah (tea-seller) has his life changed forever when a young girl is abandoned at a busy railway station and brings the place to a standstill with the beauty of her singing.
Jacob Rajan stars as a buck-toothed guru, dispensing dubious spiritual wisdom while channelling 17 perfectly realised characters in this gripping thriller. Supported by David Ward as the Musician and Dave character.
Outrageously funny and heartbreakingly beautiful, with a killer live soundtrack, Guru of Chai has been acclaimed as a work of genius.
