Description

KaMeeNi is a bold and thought-provoking play by Abida Malik that explores gender, culture, and identity within the Pakistani-Australian community. Fearlessly confronting patriarchy and misogyny, the performance shines a powerful light on women’s struggles while celebrating their resilience, courage, and strength. It is a moving story of survival, defiance, and empowerment that will leave audiences reflecting long after the curtain falls. KaMeeni is a multi lingual play in Urdu and English.
