How to negotiate the dark labyrinth of patriarchy while reaching for the stars?
A surreal but yet totally relevant celebration of women’s lives in all their wondrous, myriad manifestations – the secrets and lies, magic and enchantment, the pleasure and the pain.
An evening that promises to be extremely emotional, sometimes hilarious, occasionally heartbreaking but always fascinating.
Come to listen to the Shinani Speaking in Sharon Morgan’s Welsh language translation of The Vagina Monologues by Eve Ensler.
Supporting Welsh Women’s Aid campaign to create a world where women and children live free from domestic abuse and all forms of violence.
All are welcome.
