Home Play by Naghmeh Samini

Description

Home by Naghmeh Samini is a contemporary Iranian stage play structured into four main sections: Bedroom, Kitchen, Bathroom, and Rooftop. Each section symbolizes a specific space in the home and reflects the psychological and social states of the characters. In this play, the house itself becomes a living, influential character that drives the narrative. The story follows seven main characters—Azad (father), Roya (mother), Hamoon (eldest son), Mahan (middle son), Parnian (youngest daughter), and two other adults—representing different social classes in Iranian society. Through their interactions and struggles with identity, belonging, and loneliness, Samini offers a profound exploration of individual and collective dynamics. The structure allows audiences to understand both the unique perspective of each space and the complex interconnections among the characters, making the home a microcosm of broader societal and emotional themes.
