OneLight Theatre brings Masoud
Behnoud’s Khanoom to life on the stage. From the palace harem to occupied
Paris, experience the incredible journey of a Persian princess and see the world
through her eyes.
OneLight Theatre’s Shahin
Sayadi has developed an
original translation and adaptation of Behnoud’s epic novel in association with
Neptune Theatre and Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia. The stunning staging of The
Veil will transport the audience on Khanoom’s journey from her childhood in the
Qajar palace, to war-torn Europe and back to her childhood home, forever changed
by war and revolution.
Join four generations of women as
they struggle to find their identities, independence and a place for themselves
in a rapidly changing world. This original play, written and directed by Shahin
Sayadi, will play in two Canadian cities:
Halifax:
October 30-November 18,
2007
Toronto:
November 28 – December 9,
