ABOUT THE PIECE
Foundations of Feminism: The Poetics of Curiopathy As A Manifestation of the Sisterhood Zeitgeist In Feministological Nepali Archivitism is a theatrical performance that brings archival photographs from Feminist Memory Project Collection from the Nepal Picture Library to life. The performance delves into the heart of feminist identity, its diverse manifestations, and challenges the conventional narratives of history and power. It's a poignant critique and satire of the academic discourse around feminism, creating a dialogue between past and present. Through a political act of storytelling, a means to forge connections, and a platform to explore and redefine feminism through a blend of historical substance and emotive narration.

Please feel free to email director at yutsha@stanford.edu if you have any questions about the project, the process, or auditioning!
