TEHRAN -- Italian troupe Muta Imago is scheduled to perform “(a+b)3” at the Hafez Hall in the southern Iranian city of Shiraz next week.
“The decision to stage the play in the city was made after it was warmly welcomed in Tehran,” producer Mohammad Qods told the Persian service of the Fars News Agency on Wednesday.
The troupe, which will be will be directed by Claudia Sorace, will give two performances in Shiraz on October 21.
“(a+b)3” is about two lovers who plan to go out at night. They prepare themselves and move out frantically, until they stop in front of a mirror that reflects their names on their dim shadows.
The troupe performed “(a+b)3” and another play, the anti-war play “Lev”, at Tehran’s Iranshahr Theater Complex for several weeks in September.
Both plays had been staged by the group during the 31st Fajr International Theater Festival in Tehran in February 2012.
Muta Imago was founded by playwright Riccardo Fazi, director Sorace and scenographer Massimo Troncanetti in 2004.
The troupe takes a positive approach to theatrical research by use of technology and a highly corporeal style of recitation.
