Positively Shameless is a devised theatre performance about surviving childhood sexual abuse (CSA) and working through the residues as an adult. The five women who comprise the performing ensemble chose to engage with issues around CSA through theatre to extend their own personal journeys as well as to create performance that is meaningful to a larger audience. The piece has been collaboratively created by the performers and directors.

While the piece explores a difficult issue, it also celebrates the sense of sisterhood and spirit of the players. It packs in layers of subtext and stays far away from taking on a preachy voice. We don't claim to have it all figured out but are willing to share our journey.

This performance runs for 60 minutes without intermission and is followed by a 30 min audience interaction.

Players: Kavya Bose, Sathyam AP, Sharanya Iyer, Shilpa Waghmare, Vijji Chari
