Episode 4 of TVT, presented in Persian, explores theatre, literature, and the relationship between artists and their audiences.
In this episode, we remember Hamid Samandarian, an influential Iranian theatre director, translator, and educator whose artistic and teaching career was connected with generations of Iranian actors and directors.
We also turn our attention to both sides of the stage: the audience and the theatre community. The program reflects on the role and responsibility each has in supporting a living and sustainable theatre culture, and on the relationship between those who create theatre and those who experience it.
In our book segment, we introduce The Blue Jay by Hamed Esmaeilion, bringing another contemporary literary work to TVT viewers.
This episode continues TVT’s exploration of theatre, literature, and cultural memory—from remembering influential artists to conversations about the relationship between the stage, the artist, and the audience.
