Three sat under the Banyan Tree

About

Polka Theatre and Tara Arts presents

Near the foothills of the Himalayas, three orphans open a magical book under a Banyan tree...

They were told the book wouldn't give them answers but that they'd learn from it, so they stir a pot of milk and watch as three stories of the forest rise from the pages. Stories of headstrong crows, a mongoose who wants a family, and a brave lion come vibrantly to life, with masks, movement and music.

In this exciting adaptation of The Panchatantra (India's equivalent to Aesop's Fables), written by Shamser Sinha; three children learn lessons that will help them face the challenges of their new lives. Can they manage to stay together through it all? What lessons await them as they discover the animals of the forest? Be awed as three fabulous actors bring this contemporary adaptation of a timeless classic to life with empathy and humour, using masks, movement and music.

Age guidance: 7 - 12 years
