Behind the Curtain: Karol
Join us for an evening of drama reading featuring Karol by Sławomir Mrożek, directed by Toufan Mehrdadian.
Presented in Farsi / Persian
Karol is part of the Behind the Curtain series, offering an intimate encounter with dramatic literature through live reading, interpretation, and audience engagement.
About the Play
A half-blind grandfather and his grandson arrive at an optometrist’s office with a shotgun. They need glasses, they explain, so that Grandpa can finally find and shoot “Karol” — though neither of them can say who Karol is. Written by the Polish master of the absurd, Sławomir Mrożek, this sharp one-act comedy turns a routine eye exam into a darkly funny study of fear, obedience and how easily anyone can be named the enemy.
About the Reading
Rather than a fully staged production, this interactive reading focuses on the text, the characters, the rhythm of dialogue, and the relationship between performers and audience. It offers a close and engaging way to experience theatre through the spoken word.
