Nirbhaya

Written and Directed by Yaël Farber

Based on the performers’ real life experiences.

Described as “one of the most powerful and urgent pieces of human rights theatre ever made” (The Herald), Nirbhaya is inspired by the true events that occurred on the night of December 16, 2012 when a young woman and her male friend boarded a bus in urban Delhi heading for home.

With an extraordinary cast and creative team from India,Nirbhaya tears away the shame that keeps survivors silent and is a voyage into a tapestry of personal testimonies that speaks for a nation and a world no longer able to hold the tides of change at bay. Winner of the coveted Amnesty International Freedom of Expression Award and recently named Critic’s Pick by the New York Times, Nirbhaya is an unforgettable work that moves and inspires audiences with

the sheer capacity of the human spirit to rise, bear witness, survive and turn the tide.
