Japanese director to stage play on Persian myths in Tehran
TEHRAN, June 8 (MNA) -- The Japanese stage director Izumi Ashizawa will perform a play based on Persian myths in Japanese dramatic form in Tehran.
In a joint project with Yasser Khaseb, Ashizawa will stage “Chaoma and the Warrior” at the Stage Studio on June 14 and 15.
A private project, the play will go on stage in a place different from the ordinary venues of theater performances in Tehran, Khaseb told the Persian service of ISNA.
“We have proposed the project to the Center for Dramatic Arts last year and they agrees to it although they announced that they cannot afford any financial support,” he added.
Khaseb accompanied by some other Iranian actors will play in “Chaoma and the Warrior”.
“Ashizawa resides in the U.S. and unfortunately, we can not afford facilities for her sojourn in Tehran. However, we will hold two or three performances each day,” Khaseb added.
Ashizawa staged “Zahak” at the 6th Women’s Theater Festival in 2007, which won the Best Performance Award. The play was the result of a series of workshops she held during the festival in Tehran, he added.
Khaseb’s plays “Mud”, “Motherland” and “Mysterious Gift” have been on stage in different countries around the world and have been received warmly by audiences.
