The future is ours to see

If you think the world is crazy now you should see it in 50 years' time. Take a look into our cracked crystal ball with Indian Ink's brand new show.

Imagine a future where India is the most powerful nation on earth. When Leela Devi leaves her tribal home to see the world, she doesn't expect her father's elephant to follow her. As she battles corrupt officials, hungry poachers, fanatical leaders and supreme beings, an unlikely love story unfolds and a quiet revolution ferments.

All the theatrical magic, mischievous wit and inspired lunacy we've come to expect as well as some mammoth surprises. Don't miss this comic adventure born out of true events.
