A poet and counselor in the court of King Krishnadevaraya, Tenali Ramakrishna (or Tenali) has been the subject of many different stories, poems, films, and TV shows over the years. In this NWCT original, Tenali (Ajai Tripathi) finds himself swept up in palace intrigue when Krishnadevaraya’s (Samson Syharath) prized crown mysteriously disappears. With everyone in court a suspect, Tenali must match wits with rival ministers, courtiers, and palace guards and find the crown before it’s too late. With a hilarious original script from playwright Avantika Shankar, dazzling choreography by Anita Menon, and live onstage Carnatic music,
this play is the perfect introduction to a beloved character. |
