Iran Theater- In a message to the 41st Fadjr International Theater Festival, the Director General of performing Arts Center and ITI President of Iran, Kazem Nazari wrote: The 41st Fadjr International Theater Festival" is the closest artistic event that presents itself to committed and broad-minded artists to show the explanatory approaches of the art of the revolution and the values arising from the ancient Iranian culture with an original but comprehensive, universal and modern source, in the form of theater and other types of performances and to show Iranian cultural proudly above other converging territories in today's world
The message of Kazem Nazari is as follows:
In the Name of Almighty
Persian Poem: Your face charms the world, yes together we can conquer the world
The supreme and hopeful scope of theater art, as it is considered the closest aesthetic and thought-oriented type to human life; can reflect human’s intellectual existence and social behavior.
Art accurately and delicately observes the inner concerns and outer actions of today's human, especially those facing the waves of destruction and the invading masses of distress, via reproducing and playing a role in an artistic presentation, and presents it to the audience honestly and broadly and invite them to watch and reflect and return to one's spiritual capacities and capabilities.
From this point of view, the "41st Fadjr International Theater Festival" is the closest artistic event that presents itself to committed and broad-minded artists to show the explanatory approaches of the art of the revolution and the values arising from the ancient Iranian culture with an original but comprehensive, universal and modern source, in the form of theater and other types of performances and to show Iranian cultural proudly above other converging territories in today's world.
Undoubtedly, the artistic works that have reached this festival are signs of maturity and wisdom in the context of the concepts and components of the Islamic revolution of these people and the values and virtues present in the heart of the social beliefs of this nation of Imam Hossein, so it shows that it is a huge amount of values resulting from the deep and effective cooperation of the performing arts associations across the country and the general administrations of culture and Islamic guidance of the provinces with the dramatic arts center that reflect the evolution and development of city, provincial and regional festivals, which, like an eye-catching stream, has reached the bright and promising place of the national and international part of this transformative art from the young efforts and experiences.
We appreciate this synergy based on trust and sympathetic achievements and we hope that this rare experience on the stage of great Iran will be able to shine prosperously and highly eternal lights on the theater and its discerning audience.
This goal is not certainly a far-fetched ideal from the capabilities of this expressive, modern, ancient and extensive art, as well as the experience and thought of the old and young activists in this field.
I hope the world of all of us get enlightened by the favors of God and we see more effective and extensive events which take their light from the heavenly borders of the culture and art of this country.

General Director of Dramatic Arts Center
