I am an Actress, Where is my Country?
When
March 1st
7:30pm - 8:15pm
More Information
In a country where art is silenced under the weight of censorship, one actress dares to tell the truth about silencedIran’s creative underground. “I Am an Actress ; Where Is My Country” is a raw, personal journey through the shadows of banned performances, suppressed voices, and stories locked away in fear. Through vivid vignettes that weave memory with resistance, a fearless performer shares her exile and the sacrifices Iranian artists face: the choice between their homeland and their art.
From Tehran’s shuttered stages to this very performance, witness one woman’s fight for artistic freedom and hear the unyielding anthem of those who refuse to let their creativity be .
