Nassim Soleimanpour
“White Rabbit Red Rabbit” is performed each time by a different actor who has neither rehearsed nor seen the script and has been asked to come to the performance without knowing anything about the content or role. This is the set-up for this unique play performed in theatres in over 45 countries around the world. It was written by the Iranian-born and Berlin-based Nassim Soleimanpour, who has now created this new play “Nassim” out of the experience of seeing his work translated in over 25 languages and staged internationally, but never in his native language of Farsi. Once the show starts, the actor on stage speaks and does things guided only by the writer’s instructions. The communication between them relaxes and evolves, at times involving interaction with the audience. Underlying this seemingly innocent exchange is an exploration of the power of words and the link between language and identity.

*In Japanese and Farsi. Please see the official website for details.
