At what point do you follow morals over orders? This darkly comic play explores how unexamined adherence to leadership can drive you to stifle what makes you most human. Set in a fictionalized 1648 India, two Imperial Guards watch from their post as the sun rises on the newly-completed Taj Mahal for the first time—an event that shakes their respective worlds. When they are ordered to perform an unthinkable task, the aftermath forces them to question their very ideas of beauty, loyalty, and even their own friendship. A wry and haunting examination of blind obedience.
NextStop Theatre navigates the production of 'Guards at the Taj' with a sincere and skillful blend of empathy and urgency, acknowledging the difficulties of the choices we make and the worlds we live in, while encouraging us to do better.
