Mallika Taneja

Mallika Taneja is a theatre artist living and working in New Delhi.   

Through performances and interventions, she attempts to understand what ‘equality’ means, how it operates and how each body may defy the unjust power structures.

Mallika tours her solo piece BE CAREFUL that speaks of victim blaming, the never ending responsibility on women and the unfortunate and ironic conflation between what women wear and the violence that is meted out on them.

She is constructing a new work ALLEGEDLY that examines the cross sections of consent, law, truth, believability and memory.

In India, she also organizes ‘Midnight Walks’ in which women stroll around the city past midnight, a time at which most would not dare to venture.
