Lucky Tent & Light House

Karampura is where we are, specifically at H-83. It is a bit of a tight squeeze sometimes when the trucks come in. I handle the lights and my brother looks at the tent setups. We’ve got these strings of bulbs that we’re always untangling. It feels like half my life is spent just getting knots out of wires. The shop isn't much to look at, just a lot of shelves and some old desks. We’ve been in this part of Karampura for years. People around here know that if they need a few extra lights for a small function, they can just walk over. We don’t have a website or anything like that. Just the phone and the front door. Sometimes the bulbs break during transport and we have to spend the afternoon replacing them. It’s tedious work but it keeps the business running. We usually have a lot of tea while we work. The neighborhood is loud, but we are used to it by now. In the summer, the shop gets really hot because of all the equipment, so we sit outside on the stools. We don’t make big promises. We just show up with the gear and set it up. It is honest work and it pays the bills. Sometimes the rain catches us off guard and we have to run to cover the fabrics. That's just how it goes for us at Lucky Tent & Light House. It is a simple life and we like it.
