Zangoora

People flying and somersaulting in the air.
Color, sparkle, dazzle, and dancing.

It was over stimulation.
It was incredible to see.

The story of the musical Zangoora itself was not that spectacular, but the effects were. What they could do with the LED screen backdrop was pretty nifty.
Not everyone is thrilled with Zangoora. And I must agree that it's expensive.
But the "wow, I'm seeing bollywood dancing in real life"--there's not really any other way to come by that.
Imagine, seeing this live:
Yeah, I pretty much sat there grinning the whole time.

Kingdom of Dreams

Welcome to the Kingdom of Dreams.
I am reminded of Disney World. Or maybe that should more accurately be: Las Vegas--but I've never been there to compare.
We've got glitz, sparkle, facades, required shopping, and high prices.
And the prohibition of weapons. What does that sound like to you?

It's also a place with a fake sky and an indoor beach.
There are people walking around drumming and ringing bells, with dancers appearing in windows and between tables.

There is also genuine artistry happening--like the stairway and walls of this side shop.

From the showy displays of wealth to the poverty on the streets, India is diverse place.
