THREE TALL PERSIAN WOMEN
Lenox, 7:00 pm

Shakespeare & Company presents the World Premiere of Awni Abdi-Bahri's Three Tall Persian Women, directed by Dalia Ashurina, August 30 through October 13 in the Elayne P. Berstein Theatre.

Golnar, a punkish Iranian-American millennial, returns home to her mother Nasrin for the anniversary of her father’s passing, and walks into hoards of family memorabilia that her grandmother Mamani has moved in with her. This comedic and touching play is about generational differences, grief, control, and learning to let go; but more than anything, it’s a love story to immigrant mothers.   To purchase tickets, visit shakespeare.org, or call the Box Office at (413) 637-3353.
