Siamak Safari: I have stage fright

Siamak Safari, stage actor and director, works as a consultant with the youth group of the show "Waiting for Godot" directed by Amir- Hossein Javani, which will be staged on the July  4 at the Kakh Honar.
This veteran theater artist said about working with young people: "My participation in a project like Waiting for Godot is based on the request of creative and enthusiastic young people. They wanted a person who, in their opinion, has more experience in theater to be in the course of their activities and work."

He talked about his plan to perform the show: "I would still love to collaborate with students to produce a workshop show, but unfortunately, the conditions in terms of time and funding are not provided."

Safari also said about his lack of work in the theater: "Being on stage is associated with fear for me. This fear is partly related to the play and the director's view.How a director sees the scene and what principles he has is very important."

He continued: "I have to be satisfied with the character that I play on stage, and it's a bit hard to find such a role these days. Being able to see the ideal form of a work on the stage makes me hesitant to choose and accept a role. But I still hope that there will be a situation where I can be in the theater with people who think like me and play a role that I like."
