The Bollywood Trip

Dive into a world of drama and mayhem.

What happens when a Bollywood star winds up in a psychiatric ward in Denmark? Chaos, comedy, music, love and spectacular Bollywood dancing.

Direct from its Copenhagen premiere with five star reviews, The Bollywood Trip hits London with a bang.

East meets West as an international cast of actors, dancers and musicians present this tragi-comedy by Republique, one of Denmark's most acclaimed theatre companies.

Award-winning director Rolf Heim collaborates with leading modern kathak choreographer and Southbank Centre Artist in Residence Gauri Sharma Tripathi. Musician and composer Stephan Grabowski and band provide the musical score.

Get ready for One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest meets Bollywood!

'Who's interested in seeing films about what life is like? We make films about what doesn't exist. About dreams. Fantasies. The unattainable. About what life ought to be like. Could be like!' ('Haroon' from The Bollywood Trip)

'What unites us? What makes us all Indians? Films! We breathe, eat and live for films.' ('Haroon' from The Bollywood Trip)

'The Bollywood Trip is full of boiling hot musicality, sensitivity, naivity, energy and joy - in other words the things that make life beautiful, great and unexepected.' (Arbejderen, 2011)

'The first Danish Bollywood performance ever is a mental pill of happiness that buzzes in the bodies of the audience long after the thundering rhythms from the music have gone silent.' (5 stars, Byen kalder, 2011)
