Abstract	The present research paper analyzes Sreeja’s play, ‘Labour Room’ from a feminist perspective and encapsulates the multi-faceted circumstances which govern a woman’s willingness to either embrace motherhood or be contemptuous towards maternity. Another pivotal feminist approach that has been incorporated in the play is the need to resist the reductionism of women to their skin color and flout the idea that only fair-skinned females are an embodiment of femininity. The researcher has employed discourse analysis and thematic analysis as qualitative research tools in the play. Thus, the paper serves as a testament of the varied forms of suppression that are undergone by women, along with the need to seek ways to emancipate women.
