*MY MOTHER   THE GHARWALI   HER MAALAK   HIS WIFE*



Directed by *Sushama Deshpande*   Performed by *VAMP*   Devised by *Divya
Bhatia*



Leena is a woman in prostitution. Leena is also a woman in love with her
rickshaw-driver prince, who is suddenly talking about riding off into the
sunset - alone.

*'My Mother, The Gharwali, Her Maalak, His Wife'*  looks at 24 hours in the
lives of the people who live in or pass through the *galli* (street) in
which Leena lives. What happens here in these 24 hours, happens in their *
galli* everyday.

*My Mother, The Gharwali, Her Maalak, His Wife* is performed by VAMP*,* a
collective of women in prostitution based in Sangli. Hear them speak their
own stories, talk their own tales and re-imagine their own realities.

Dear Friends,
This performance has received rave reviews in Mumbai and elsewhere. Actors
are sex workers themselves... now well-trained stage actors. Entry is free,
but they are requesting 100 Rs. donation.

Hope to see you there... You won't be disappointed.

Veronica
