Troubadour: The Play There is more to Love than Life. No poetic genius expressed this more eloquently than "the Greatest Mystic of any Age" - Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi. Nearly eight hundred years ago during Master Rumi's lifetime, Afghanistan and Iraq were brutally ravaged by Mongol hordes. The more things change, the more they remain the same. How self-fulfilling can a creative person's destiny get? Damned if he does and damned if he doesn't.
Synopsis: Troubadour is the complex persona of this intense churning, voicing the beauty and truth of the Divine Rumi's stories and verse. It is also a heartfelt tribute to the original storytellers of yore - the 'Tarabdaars' who talked and danced and sang about 'the Mysteries'. Troubadour is nothing but a celebration of Love, transcending time and space, birth and death, heaven and hell: with compassion, humour and insight. It is an invitation to the audience to revel in the true abandon of Self-discovery. Troubadour is a synonym for the Eternal Lover within us all.
