Indian Ink Theatre Company is a New Zealand theatre company founded by actor Jacob Rajan Шаблон:Post-nominals (b. 1966) and director/writer Justin Lewis (b. 1967).[1] Founded in 1996, Indian Ink's first theatrical production was Krishnan's Dairy, which went on to win the Chapman Tripp Award for Production of the Year (1997). The following year Krishnan's Dairy presented in the bigger theatre Downstage Theatre and was so popular the season was extended by five shows.[2] Over the years Indian Inks productions have been toured through New Zealand and overseas with presentations including Krishnan's Dairy, The Candlestick Maker, and The Pickle King.[3] Their most recent production is Dirty Work: An Ode to Joy (2023).[4]

Kiss the Fish (2013) was heavily influenced by Balinese masks and gamelan and Rajan and Lewis had studied in Indonesia. The original title of the play was Monkeys and Men.[5]
