This was a collaborative theatre that during the pandemic (COVID-19) I seized the opportunity to engage people of all ages in an online workshop aimed at exploring, observing, and recording their memories. This project culminated in an interactive and collective theatre experience in person.
This theatre was performed inspired by the works of Robert Lepage in Homay Saadat Theater in Tehran.
The use of suitcases showed the passage and travel to distant and near times, which were shown to the audience by the actors during the performance.
The contents of each suitcase were introduction cards from past shared memories, which allowed the audience to participate in the performance and confirm the memories.
