The DVD also has a bilingual language track, with the option to listen to the dialogue in English or Hindi.  May & June proudly continue Women & Theatre’s tradition of crossing language barriers to reach a variety of communities.  Over the years we’ve created bilingual theatre with South Asian languages (Chale Ga, Chale Ga, Dil Ke Baat), sign language (All of Us, Woman First), and even an entirely non-verbal play, Un-Kahi (Unspoken), which reached diverse audiences regardless of spoken language.  Women & Theatre also regularly work with community interpreters and signers to support performances, discussions and research.
