This event has passed Get tickets

Event description

After a sell-out season in Sydney Festival, Dorr-e Dari is coming home to Fairfield.

Switch off the dating apps, forget the nightclubs and tune in to a thousand-year strong tradition of courtly Persian love poetry.

Through intimate storytelling and epic ballads from the streets of Kabul, Tehran and Quetta, via Western Sydney, your hosts Bibi, Jawad and Mahdi will guide you on the path to love.

Inspired by the tradition of private recitals and ‘curtain shows’ performed all through the Persian-speaking world, this rich and tender new theatre work will show you there’s a verse for every condition of the heart.

بعد از یک فصل فروش كامل در جشنواره سیدنی ، در دری در حال بازگشت به خانه در فیرفیلد است

برنامه های دوست یابی را خاموش کنید ، کلوپ های شبانه را فراموش کنید و با یک سنت قوی هزار ساله شعر عاشقانه فارسي همراه شوید

از طریق داستان های صمیمی و عاشقانه از خیابان های کابل ، تهران و کویته ، از طریق وسترن سیدنی ، میزبانان شما ،بی بی ، جواد و مهدی شما را در مسیر عشق راهنمایی می کنند

با الهام از سنت مجالس خصوصی و "نمایش پرده" که در سراسر جهان فارسی زبان اجرا می شود ، این اثر جدید و غنی و جذاب تئاتر به شما نشان می دهد که یک شعر برای هر شرايط احساسي قلب وجود دارد
