YONIVERSE (formerly: YONI KI KAHANIYA)

Following in the #MeToo movement I was happy to see the South Asian women speaking their truth and breaking their traditional oppressed silence. I hope they felt the weight lift off by the support that was evident in the theatre and the sold out and encore response this show is receiving!... full review

Yoniverse was the inspiring, coming-of-age story of four beautiful, Brown women who pushed past the limiting beliefs of family and society to find their voices, step into their power and own their womanhood. ... full review

Great show! So proud of these Indian origin women for putting up such a powerful show that everyone needs to see!... full review

This play was hands down the most relatable, palpable play I’ve ever seen. I related to each woman in one way or another. I laughed until my stomach hurt, bit my cheeks to avoid sobbing at some points, and just felt every single emotion describable. It epitomized women empowerment. It was so beautiful to see these south Asian women ROAR. Even today so many of the topics are still taboo that I felt like “omg she just said that” but then smiled and felt so proud afterwards. This play genuinely HEALED so many parts of me. I hope this blows up or continues in some way so I can follow the journey! ... full review

beautiful to see stories from Indian women - (like Indian take on vagina monologues in a way) difficult stories told with strong delivery. The mix of revealing trauma but also delivering in comedy was not easy, but done very nicely.... full review
