A peak into some of our past femprov (feminist improv) jams. As an ardent "I will never ever do online improv" person who has now become "I am sooo happy in this space"

Virtual improv is so so much fun where traffic, noise and geographical boundaries do not come in the way...

(well ok I was wrong about the noise part, our jams can get noisy! 😉)

But there’s something so lovely about strangers (or friends or acquaintances) coming together to play, get curious, challenge norms and create a little feminist mischief.⚡️

Daniel began with a poem from the time of COVID: Sanitized Killings Behind Glass Walls. A chilling image of how we are protected from witnessing the butchery and atrocities inflicted on the less privileged, and how easily apathy settles behind the curtains of privilege. It shook the whole room.

Then, just as we were still recovering, he flipped the script and wooed us with a ‘bad’ love poem inspired by forlorn lover boys in poetry circles, titled I Want to Love You Like You Do. And it was nothing remotely close to what we expected, unlike a love poem, and yet so much like one should be. As always, he blew our minds.

Our favourite lines: I want to kiss like you do, when no one questions which lips belong to which God, which hand belongs to what caste.

Anu's first poem came with a trigger warning: death and violence. It ripped us apart in ways only those in the room could feel. It ended with: I often picture you dead, that is how I continue living. And we were swept away by the tide of his words.

His second poem, titled Queer Violence, was dedicated to the Trans Act Amendment Bill. His words have stayed with us: I am standing my ground tonight, wounded in bloody clothes, frozen yet on fire, trembling in rage, ready to fight with my bare teeth…

This was his first ever performance, and we are so glad the universe and our little spot slot box chose him! At the end of his set, we knew
