A gripping musical theatre piece about liberation

Seven performers bring to life the fascinating story of Simurgh, the Persian phoenix. Interwoven with this myth are texts by Narges Mohammadi, the political activist and Nobel Prize winner who spent many years in an Iranian prison cell for her criticism of the regime. What appears as history is today’s reality, and what is real seems as though it were a dream. ZAN unfolds in a landscape of voices, synthesizers, sitar and electronics, drawing on spiritual traditions, mourning, trance, anger and tenderness.
