    FOREIGN STUDENTS WATCH IRANIAN PLAY "DOGLEG" IN TEHRAN

    Tehran Times

    TEHRAN -- A group of foreign students visiting Iran watched the
    Iranian play "Dogleg" at Tehran's City Theater Complex on Tuesday.

    Twenty five students from Hungary, Bulgaria, Turkey, Italy, Armenia
    and Georgia sat to watch the play director Katayun Feiz Marandi.

    The students who are studying Persian history and literature in
    their countries regarded the play a good example of oriental plays,
    the Persian service of Fars reported on Wednesday.

    Victor from Hungary believed that the play was an interesting one,
    saying that he was fascinated by acting but the actors were speaking
    fast making it hard for him to understand the dialogue.

    Iliana Bourgeois from Bulgaria said that she is traveling to Iran for
    the first time and that the play gave her a good feeling since she
    had no idea how good Iranian plays would be. In her idea, the play
    "Dogleg" was a modern work.

    Asma Zengin from Turkey called the play a beautiful work and said
    that in her idea the actors played very well. She was also surprised
    why such a beautiful complex like City Theater has such a small hall
    like Sayeh.

    Tatia who is studying Persian language at the Tbilisi State University
    of Georgia said that she enjoyed the play, its good acting, and
    wonderful music.

    Written by Arash Abbasi, "Dogleg" narrates the events happening in a
    Christian family in Iran after the Iran-Iraq war. Their son is lost
    in the war, and their married daughter is back home having problems
    in her married life and is insisting to get divorced.

    The play went onstage on August 9 at the Sayeh Hall. Ali Sarabi,
    Nahid Moslemi, Roya Bakhtiari, and Elham Kordad are some of the actors.
