SUMMARY:Tarsa
DESCRIPTION:From the mystic East comes an epic tale befitting Romeo and Juliet\, a tale of love between a Sufi Shaikh\, a Christian maiden\, and a simple love that grows despite the divisions of their beliefs.  Based on the 12th century story by Attar of Nishapur\, Tarsa is a dance drama accompanied by traditional Persian music played live and expertly narrated by award winning Iranian actor and director Sadegh Hatefi. \nThe story is as follows: San’an\, a celebrated sheikh\, spends 50 years of his life studying God\, eventually acquiring a following of 500 disciples\, fell in love with a Christian maiden of great beauty\, Tarsa. San’an abandons all he has to follow this girl and journeys to Rome in search of Tarsa. When his disciples hear about this\, they pray to God that Shaikh San’an would return to the right path.  \nFeaturing \n\nSadegh Hatefi (Iranian actor and director) as messenger\, narrator\nFarima Berenji as Tarsa\nAli Aminipour (Iranian actor and film director) as Sheikh San’an\nDances by the Simorgh Dance Collective\nMusic by Homeyra Banejad and Ensemble\n\nDialogue will be in Farsi with English subtitles. \nTickets\nTickets: $25 advance\, $30 at the door\, $50 VIP (online only).\n\n \n \n  \nFarima Berenji\nFarima Berenji as Tarsa\nFarima Berenji is an Iranian-born scholar and an award winning\, internationally acclaimed performing artist\, choreographer\, instructor\, lecturer\, dance ethnologist\, and archaeologist specializing in classical\, folkloric\, and sacred dances of Persia and the Silk Road.
