    Listen: UCLA professor's art emulates life in Soviet Armenia

    By Lilit Arakelyan

    The sound of an arriving train brings the audience into Professor
    Anahid Keshishian's one-woman show, as she and her family leave their
    home in pre-revolutionary Iran and arrive in Soviet Armenia to begin
    their new life. "Ka Yev Chka II," which means "There Is and There
    Isn't" in Armenian, is the second one-woman show the Near Eastern
    Languages and Cultures professor has written and performed. Radio
    reporter Lilit Arakelyan sits down to talk with Professor Keshishian
    about her decision to write and perform her story, how the show came
    to fruition and what message she hopes her audience - particularly
    her students - will take away.
