Meet Roya, our fabulous hostess, as she welcomes you into her home to celebrate Nowruz, the Iranian New Year. She’s preparing a feast, but the main attraction is Roya sharing her great American journey from Tehran to “Tehran-geles,” California. Get ready for the time of your life with this hilarious and deeply personal tribute to the playwright’s mother, exquisitely portrayed by the person who knows her best — her son. Traditions, humor, and passionate storytelling transform this tale of family bonds into an unforgettable theatre event!
Avaaz is a radiant celebration of resilience, rebirth, and joy, brought to life by Emmy-nominated writer and actor Michael Shayan. Join the festivities and get your tickets to this one-person show that has delighted audiences across the nation when it makes its Denver Center debut this fall.
Defiant, celebratory, and free.
