Mike directs a Neil Simon play in India. Life crisis ensues. In 1999 Mike Schlitt accepted an offer to direct Neil Simon's They're Playing Our Song on a 4 city tour across India. The sheer incongruity of it all - Mahatma Gandhi and "Dock" Simon singing and dancing their way through the Great Subcontinent was just too tantalizing to resist. Mike took the job, and decided to make a movie about his journey. The trip was a disaster; the film was never completed - and Mike soon found himself in the throws of a devastating life crisis the likes of which he is still struggling to claw his way out of.
Mike's Incredible Indian Adventure is an epic tale of clashing cultures and gastric distress. It's a play about a film about a play, chronically an artist's wrong turn "off" the road to success and the strange, surreal and terrifying journey to find his way back.
