Whose Sari Now?

Performed by actress/writer Rani Moorthy.

"Six yards of cloth, wound round tight

Or draped seductively

Or practically, for breastfeeding

Or pulled between thighs to walk like a man

Or wildly thrown together, with Doc Martin boots

A modest proposal or a political act or a defiant one

Whose Sari Now? Is the funny and poignant journey of one sari handed down, handed over and handed out to the characters in the play. Through each character's relationship with the sari, we get a glimpse of the myriad ways in which the garment impacts the lives of women across boundaries and generations."
