The Guru of Chai

SCOOPING Best Play, Best Actor and Best Composer, Guru of Chai has gone on to sell out tours around the world – tours that have brought audiences to their feet pronouncing it “the best show”. Now it’s time for our Guru to bring his magic to Frankston Arts Centre’s stage. The contradictions of modern India with its iPhones and ancient gods come alive in this outrageously funny and heartbreakingly beautiful production. Our Guru, a poor chai-wallah, 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. Guru of Chai will transport you to a vibrant world by weaving compelling stories through delightful characters that will leave your heart uplifted, your mind inspired and your soul nourished. The Guru of Chai will be performed on Friday 26 July, 1pm & 7.30pm at Frankston Arts Centre. Tickets are $27-$59 and can be booked online on thefac.com.au, on the phone 03 9784 1060 or in person at Frankston Arts...
