UNI Interpreters Theatre

Burnt City (or شهر سوخته) is about United States-Iran relations, using poetry, humor, video, vignettes, and Farsi.

<p>Burnt City (or شهر سوخته) is about United States-Iran relations, using poetry, humor, video, vignettes, and Farsi to excavate how domestic abuse at home is congruous to violence inflicted by governments on citizens. And, yes, it is a comedy... of horrors! Winner of 2022's IAANI Outstanding Visual Project Award and CSCA's Outstanding AutoEthnography, Hamzehee was inspired to write the show in Farglish (Farsi-English) as a way of inviting unfamiliar audiences into a beautiful Persian culture often weaponized by America as anti-American.</p>
