Featured Description (from the owner)
In March 2020, most theatres closed their doors due to the pandemic. In order to celebrate the resiliency of live theatre in the time that followed, theatres around the world come together to perform โWhite Rabbit, Red Rabbitโ on 13th of March!
Will you participate? Will you be manipulated? Will you listen? Will you really listen?
With no rehearsals, no director, one actor, and a script waiting in a sealed envelope on stage, the internationally acclaimedย White Rabbit Red Rabbit, by Iranian writer Nassim Soleimanpour, is an audacious theatrical experiment and a potent reminder of the transgressive and transformative power of theatre.
Forbidden to leave his native Iran, Soleimanpour wrote a play which travelled the world in his place. The audience joins the actor on a journey into the unknown; stumbling upon the personal and profound, the limits of liberty, and ultimately where theatre can take you.
Since its joint premiere in 2011, the play has been translated into over 25 different languages and has been performed over 1000 times by some of the biggest names in theatre and film, including actors Whoopi Goldberg, Nathan Lane, John Hurt, Simon McBurney, Stephen Fry, Sinead Cusack, Marcus Brigstocke and Ken Loach.
