#BreakTheSilence: PAWSTUDIOS Presents “Shattered” In Honour Of International Day Of The Girl Child

In anticipation of the International Day of the Girl Child, the Performing Arts Workshop and Studios (PAWSTUDIOS) in conjunction with Eko Hotel and  Temple Production Foundation presents “Shattered”.

Shattered, a stage play, which is based on Bode Asiyanbi’s entry for BBC story writing competition portrays the culture of silence and the society’s complacency on the issues of rape. It examines the series events that happen after a rape has occurred while encouraging the community and victims of sexual assault to break the silence.

The story was adapted into a play by Kenneth Uphopho, a critically acclaimed theatre director and festival director of the Lagos Theatre Festival.
