A WORLD PREMIÈRE PLAY THAT SET IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE ON THE EVE OF WAR BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES AND IRAN. TO UNDERSTAND THE CURRENT CONFLICT, THE PLAY TAKES US THROUGH THE HISTORY BEHIND THE COMPLICATED RELATIONSHIP OF THE TWO COUNTRIES.


OUR ENERGY WAS FOCUSED ON FINDING HISTORIC MATERIAL THAT WOULD HELP US EXPLORE THE PAST FOR THE AUDIENCE. WE COMBINED REPORTS FROM THE IRANIAN HOSTAGE CRISIS WITH MODERN ATMOSPHERIC MUSIC AND SOME ORIGINAL MUSIC TO HEIGHTEN THE AMBIGUITY AND INTRIGUE PORTRAYED IN THE PLAY.


ALL CUES WERE CREATED IN LOGIC STUDIO AND PLAYED BACK VIA QLAB.

Protest Turns Deadly

Khomeini Death to America
