What do women across the world share as experiences? In Colours of Her Heart, Mallika Sarabhai — dancer, activist, choreographer, columnist and speaker; and Samia Malik — lyricist, composer, painter, singer and a British Pakistani — bring together the pains, travails and victories of women of all nations.
Whatever the color of their skins, whatever their language and culture, the single identity that leads to their exploitation and violence against them is their gender. With songs in Urdu and English and stories that are both personal and universal, the piece draws you into the world of women’s lives.
