This is a sequel to the ever-popular Bombay Chasers which intends to teach about the hope and romance brought by Lord Krishna and Radha. Their love story is retold by the modern day characters of Radhana, Krishnan and the evil Khantha.
Similar to the first one, Makhoba said this story follows a dance troupe desperately trying to make their way to the World’s Got Talent Championships in New York.
“Along the way, there are twists and turns for each character and the obvious love triangle. Interspersed are several dance routines that help tug the story along at heightened moments of emotions.”
The show runs in the first week of heritage month, from Monday, September 4 to Thursday, September 7 at 18:00 each day.
The ticket prices are R50 for the public and R20 for students.
