Upcoming Work

Mina is throwing a party for her closest friends and for you, the audience. Over the course of the party, the friends play games, reflect on the current American socio-political landscape, and discover truths about the story of Mina’s parents falling in love and staying in love while fleeing the Iranian Revolution. A Going Away Party Play is a celebration of multicultural identities and an exploration of what it means to leave or lose your home country.

My Background

 

I have been in theatre since I was a child. I have been combining theatre and education since I discovered just how related to freedom they both really are.


 

I believe that theatre, design and education are not mutually exclusive. It allows you to practice real life. It challenges you to speak, think, listen, and asks you to be apart of something great.
