“Under Zero” written and directed by Alireza Seyyed is being staged at Divar-e-Chaharom (fourth wall) Theater House in Tehran.
The play, which has a comedic and grotesque atmosphere, includes four episodes—all of which revolve around the death of thought and identity.
The episodes are named “Attention”, “Peace”, “Development” and “Fun”, each happening in a different time setting, from Nazi Germany to communist Poland and from developed Japan to America.
The play centers on the main concerns existing in many societies: How individuals get drained of any thoughts and how people acquire identities.
Bahman Vakhshour, Rasoul Hassanpour, Sara Taqavi, Minou Maleki, Jalal Mohebbi, Amir-Reza Jalali, Neda Golrangi, Ali Nobakht, Reza Sharafi, Hamidreza Asadzadeh and Mojtaba Kazemi are in the cast.
The venue is located at No. 544, between Sarparast and Fariman streets, on Taleqani Street, near Felestin (Palestine) Square.
“Under Zero” is scheduled to remain on stage through May 21.
