The National Centre for Performing Arts presents the world premier and marks the debut of The Monk and The Warrior, a cross-cultural theatrical epic written by Mahesh Dattani, conceived and directed by Jonathan Taikina Taylor (The SuperGeographics, USA), with music by Eero Hameenniemi.

The play displays a love story between a bodhisattva and Alexander with a blend of queer narratives spanning across space, culture and times. The duo on a surreal journey that begins with their legendary encounter, unfolding into a tapestry of stories drawn from Western and Indian traditions, and marking the beginning of a dreamlike exploration of their relationship.
