Since music and dancing go hand in hand, the show will have some very exciting features. The Bollywood Masala Orchestra and Dancers of India are a group of seventeen professional artists, including acoustic musicians, singers, dancers, acrobats, a brass band and a fire eater. Indian and Western instruments like bass drums, side drums, trombone, tabla, dholak, harmonium and clarinet will all be heard at this remarkable show.
