Description: Rites is a powerful and provocative new play exploring the deep-rooted cultural practice of Female Genital Mutilation. Rites is based on interviews and true stories from girls affected in Scotland and the rest of the UK, mothers who feel under pressure to continue the practice, and the experiences of midwives, lawyers, police, teachers and health workers trying to affect change.
