Silence is AVYM latest production currently in development for 2007-2008

“Silence” is an all women’s play which unpacks stories and narratives which are not often seen in the Australian mainstream. Hoa Pham’s exploration of generational issues and cultural conflict comes from the perspective of a second generation Vietnamese-Australian with a unique feminist viewpoint. The depiction of Buddhist rituals and beliefs and the experiences of first generation women in English will inform the non-Vietnamese  audience of Vietnamese culture and history. What we hope to achieve with “Silence” is to open up an aspect of the Vietnamese community that is not often examined for discussion and empower women to speak up about their experiences.    

Rehearsed Reading at La Mama Theatre, 205 Faraday St. Carlton on Saturday July 7, 2007 at 2pm
