Join us in celebrating the legacy of legendary Iranian-American theatre artist Reza Abdoh, who died of AIDS in 1995 at the age of 32. With his company Dar A Luz, formed in 1991, Abdoh created plays that made a major impact on American experimental theatre, including The Law of Remains (1992), Tight Right White (1993) and Quotations From a Ruined City (1994). The Segal Center will pay homage to his work with an all-day program co-curated by Helen Shaw, featuring:
ALL DAY SCREENINGS: 10am-4pm: Screenings curated by Adam Soch Williams and with introductory comments by Daniel Mufson (author of Reza Abdoh, 1999).
