In this interactive production, filmmaker and cookbook author Sri Rao invites us to prepare a homemade Indian meal along with him, drawing on the recipes that were staples at his family’s table. As we join him in cooking these delicious dishes in our very own kitchens, Sri interweaves the story of his parents immigrating to America, the joy and nourishment that Bollywood musicals brought to his whole family, and the culinary traditions they shared. Enjoy a delicious Indian meal with a spices & ingredients box delivered to your doorstep!
Included with the Chef's Table and Bollywood Foodie levels, the Bollywood Box is shipped to your doorstep in advance of your performance. A shopping list of perishable items that are easy to find in your local grocery store will also be included to complete your dinner menu. Recipes serve four people.
