Details

‘Is there even a word for “non-binary” in Tamil? How is Amma meant to get me, if I don’t exist in her language?’

A Tamil teenager is preparing for their period party – a coming-of-age ritual meant to mark ‘womanhood'. But Krish isn’t a girl. And this celebration feels more like the start of a never-ending performance.

As expectations mount, Krish decides to take control. With help from their best friend Brenavee and a growing chosen family, Krish imagines the degendered party of their dreams.

Set in 2010, in the aftermath of the Tamil genocide, Period Parrrty is at once a story of survival and a trans Tamil rom-com for the ages. Nominated for the Tony Craze Award, it was first performed at Soho Theatre, London, in 2025 as a co‐production between Soho Theatre and Kali Theatre Company.
