Puberty in WinnipegMorro and Jasp do Puberty was officially selected to be a part of Sarasvàti Productions' FemFest 2016 lineup. The show had packed performances and it was a delicious homecoming to the city where this show first debuted in 2008. While we were there, we talked to high school students, university students, we taught two workshops, and we talked about periods on the radio. Mission successful!
