Help

Break the stigma

Learn more about how our show is helping to remove the stigma around talking about domestic violence in the South Asian community

Our production Behind Closed Doors is tackling the issue of Domestic Violence in the South Asian community in Australia. In January 2022, 5 South Asian women and children were allegedly killed by their father / partners / husband.
Despite this harrowing record, we believe the tides are turning and now is the time for action. Our show and associated services like the Indian subcontinent Crisis Association (ICSA), provide powerful voice and safe pathways for those who want to end domestic and family violence within the community, as well as any other adjacent communities experiencing similar problems.

Our Story

"It’s a performance that has a genuine capacity to influence change within South Asian communities and public debate more broadly. I sincerely hope it’s not the last time it’s performed."
