The Poets and The Assassins offers a historic and contemporary
insight into the plight of women in Iran, a society shrouded in
mystery, by challenging our assumption about a land that was once
home to the rich Persian civilization. Iranian women, covered under
the traditional chador, the portable walls that segregates them
from the public, unseen, anonymous but restless and eloquent, have
continued their fight for gender equity. The play portrays the
Iranian women's struggle against religious and cultural tyranny
while countering stereotypes about Muslim women. A myth-buster, the
play unveils the complex lives of Iranian women caught in the
battle of traditionalism and modernity while challenging our
assumption about them.
