“Bald Soprano” to go on stage

The play is scheduled to be staged at Tehran’s Neauphle-le-Chateau Theater during autumn, director Rahmat Amini told the Persian service of MNA on Sunday.

“The idea for staging a bilingual performance came to my mind after returning from my recent educational trip to France,” he said.

“I launched a workshop with a number of actors, who could speak French and some other people who are interested in such projects,” he added.

“The reasons why I decided to stage the play in French are that there are plays on words and language that hollows out profound concepts and these are among the topics of the play,” Amini noted.

Aspects of dualism can be perceived in the music, acting and set design of the project, he said.
   
“In foreign plays, which enjoy strata of comedy, I usually seek something that the plays have in common with Iranian dramas,” Amini stated.
