Lohrasb va Gashtasb Play with Pardeh Naghali by Manouchehr Akbarloo

Description

"Lohrasb and Gashtasb" by Manouchehr Akbarloo is a creative adaptation of the epic Persian story from Ferdowsi's "Shahnameh" (The Book of Kings), reimagined as a play and presented through the traditional art of parde khani or naghali (storytelling). This book serves as a practical toolkit for those who wish to engage with the ancient storytelling tradition, where a narrator, known as a naghali, brings epic tales to life using expressive narration and gestures, often without the need for elaborate stage props. The play centers on the legendary figures of Lohrasb and his son Gashtasb, exploring their complex relationship, the trials of kingship, and the challenges faced by Gashtasb as he prepares to inherit the throne. The package includes the script and parde naghali, making it easier for performers and enthusiasts to delve into this rich cultural heritage.
