      Description:A Tom Stoppard play in which a young English poet visits India in 1930 and finds herself poised between two very different societies. Flora has her portrait painted by an Indian artist, and 60 years later the portrait, the artist's son and Flora's sister come together in London.

      Flora Crewe, a young poet travelling India in 1930, has her portrait painted by a local artist. More than fifty years later, the artist''s son visits Flora''s sister in London while her would-be biographer is following a cold trail in India.

      The alternation of place and period in Tom Stoppard''s play (based on his radio play In the Native State) makes for a rich and moving exploration of intimate lives set against one of the great shifts of history, the emergence of the Indian sub-continent from the grip of Empire.

      Indian Ink was first performed at the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre, Guildford, and opened at the Aldwych Theatre, London, in February 1995.
