The Poets and The Assassins offers a historic and contemporary insight into the plight of women in Iran, a society shrouded in mystery, by challenging our assumption about a land that was once home to the rich Persian civilization. Iranian women, covered under the traditional chador, the portable walls that segregates them from the public, unseen, anonymous but restless and eloquent, have continued their fight for gender equity. The play portrays the Iranian women's struggle against religious and cultural tyranny while countering stereotypes about Muslim women. A myth-buster, the play unveils the complex lives of Iranian women caught in the battle of traditionalism and modernity while challenging our assumption about them.
