Description With a showman?s flair, director Roysten Abel has transformed a traditional Indian music concert into a dazzling theatrical event, placing 43 Rajasthani musicians in a whimsical 'magic box' structure. Inspired by the windows of Amsterdam?s red light district, the individual curtained compartments are framed by carnival lights, opening one by one to reveal one solo musician, then another and another.
