Mehdi Rezaei: The issue of children theater is the lack of good plays

The play "Six Crows and a Fox" written by Behrouz Gharibpour and directed by Mehdi Rezaei finished its second round of performances last night (Friday, August 11th) and it will be on stage on Thursdays and Fridays every week from September at Daa Theater Hall.

Mehdi Rezaei concerned about human emotions: My concern was to produce a show for children that take a more serious look at different human emotions. Most of the shows that are produced for the age group of children and teenagers, have an atmosphere like a happy party, but in "Six Crows and a Fox", an attempt is made to make them familiar with serious theater and  they can understand deep concepts such as altruism, wisdom, solidarity and the avoidance of naivety.

 

The artist continued: Literature is something that has been neglected due to wrong methods in the new generation of children and teenagers, and literature is becoming superficial and sloppy, but Behrouz Gharibpour’s play is written based on patterns and correct choice of words. The rhythm and dramatic tone are also very good.

Rezaei added: If children see theater continuously, it can help develop theater audience in adulthood. In fact, this is effective as long as watching theater continues during adolescence and youth.

He emphasized: Education of the adult audience from childhood requires planning by the family and the cultural-artistic officials  of the society.

He believed : Watching and even teaching theater to children makes them learn teamwork better. It also strengthens their self-confidence and creativity.
