We Are Us 2023 Tour is a collection of plays written by Rudo Mutangadura, Makomborero Theresa Muchemwa, Chiedza Rwodzi and Chimwemwe Chipidza, exploring the challenges faced by Zimbabwean women within the areas of mental health, public and private security, care work, sexual and reproductive health. The plays will be performed in a double-bill format. By drawing a thorough line across the plays that is a multi-discipline performance intersecting story, movement, sound and visuals, we will present the plays in interestingly fresh ways which will scream to attention the heartbeat of Zimbabwean Womanhood.<\/p>\n

The project will use funds from the pop-up call towards the Zimbabwe performance. As this will be the first part of our leg, where we hope to hone our process and learn from audience responses before, we take it to other countries. Overall, touring these plays will empower the women involved in the project by experiencing more diverse and nuanced responses to their work and enjoying the longevity of play performance life. This will result in them doing more work and inspire other women to do the same. The performances will inspire audiences to want to have more deliberate conversations on Zimbabwean women\u2019s experiences and, in the process, will move them to want to improve the livelihoods of women in their communities.<\/p>\n
