HONOUR depicts a child’s life pushed to the brink. Will she escape her circumstances and fate? Performer and creator Dipti Mehta says “HONOUR: Confessions of a Mumbai Courtesan is an attempt to break stereotypes. It is a piece that operates on many levels: music, dance and storytelling, to engage the viewer on a very visceral level. It connects the hearts of the characters to those of the audiences watching their story. For these 65 minutes we are one community, viewers and brothel dwellers, connected through our shared humanity. The purpose of creating HONOUR is to raise awareness and break down the social stigma that exists around sex workers.”
This show’s awards and honors include 5 stars from Time Out New York, Best Solo Show Award from the NY Fringe Festival, and the Foundation TV Award for Best Actress
Estimated run time: 65 minutes
