'I only have 10 steps to tell you everything. Who knows if all is going to start or end in these 10 steps?'

A thought-provoking play that delves into the experiences of Iranian women; shining a floodlight on the momentous events that have unfolded within the Iranian Women’s Movement since September 2022. This movement has transcended geographical boundaries, gaining global recognition and evoking empathy far beyond our homeland’s borders.

This play combines poetic and allegorical perspectives to reveal the injustices faced by women in Iran. At its core, this production is a tribute to the indomitable spirit and unwavering courage of Iranian women as they continue to navigate a system of gender apartheid.

This is part of La Mama’s Festival of Mother Tongues, a multilingual theatre festival celebrating the diversity of languages spoken in Naarm.
