Yoni Ki Baat, translated as "Talk of the Vagina", is inspired by Eve Ensler's Vagina Monologues. This transformative play encourages South Asian women to speak out against the violence and stigma associated with our bodies. Yoni Ki Baat was originally started by South Asian Sisters, a progressive collective of South Asian women, who have been organizing an annual Yoni Ki Baat for the last three years in the San Francisco area and have kindly let us use their scripts. We are proud to also have several performers write theirown scripts or perform ones that have been submitted from our local community. Chaya and Tasveer have yet again collaborated to present this year's performance! Due to high interest and enthusiasm in the community, Yoni ki Baat is scheduled for two runs this year, one on the 28th of March at 9PM and the other on 29th of March at 9PM. The following is the full program, please visit Tasveer for more details.
