Excellent performance performances all round. Engaging story which is still very relevant. Character relationships feel very natural

Very engaging, well structured & well performed
I had some trouble connecting who was who from beginning weaving through, but other than that this was utterly perfect in story, pacing, performance, and glimpse into these characters’ worlds.

Amazing
Brilliant performances by all the women it was a very intimate and unique play about the experiences of Iranian women over a period of 13 years when there is big political change in the background with profound impact on their lives- within that these women have an intensity of closeness - a very moving play

Disgusting
I’ve never heard such crass and disgusting representations of Iranian women. I had to turn it off after 5 minutes.
This is not in any way truly representative of any Persian people I’ve ever come across.
Abhorrent and misrepresentative of a very polite and old culture.
