WISH YOU WERE HERE at Remy Bumppo Theatre Company

WISH YOU WERE HERE
by Sanaz Toossi
Directed by Azar Kazemi
https://www.remybumppo.org/shows/wywh/

It’s 1978 and protests are breaking out all across Iran, encroaching on this suburb where a tight-knit circle of girlfriends plans weddings, trades dirty jokes, and tries to hang onto a sense of normalcy. But as the revolution escalates, each woman is forced to join the wave of emigration or face an equally uncertain future at home. With breathtaking humanity and cutting wit, Wish You Were Here chronicles a decade of life during war, as best friends forever become friends long lost, scattered and searching for home.

This production runs 1 hour 30 minutes with no intermission.
