In the name of God

About three and a half years ago, I met Mr. Sasha Keshvadi. Young artist, full of energy, active and full of enthusiasm for life as well as great talent; From the very beginning of my acquaintance, I realized that his most important concern in art is the problems of society and his main goal is to show these problems and get help from his art to solve them better.

Our first collaboration goes back to the play “Not Contagious”; A documentary about ichthyosis patients with the aim of informing people about the disease and also showing their problems and problems in the community, for this work interviewed patients for about eight months through the ichthyosis association and lived in principle and the result of a lot of work It was impressive.

After a few more collaborations, this year I was surprised by the play Room. Because of the current situation in Corona, I did not intend to produce a work this year, but after reading the play, I wrote him only a few words, “I am one hundred percent, count on me.”

The show of the room was the result of three months of interviews and research in the ICU of Corona, and the text of the play is about the problems of the medical staff during the Corona, as well as the health martyrs. For this performance, about two and a half months ago, despite all the limitations and risks of the crisis, the group began rehearsals, and finally what it expected was formed, but in disbelief and regret, two days left to perform due to cardiac arrest. , Our dear heavenly Sasha and we and all his loved ones were saddened.

Despite the heavy stress and grief that was on each of us, as the producer of the work, I decided not to let all their efforts be wasted and not to let the performances stop. After talking with the group, all the agents welcomed this issue and stood up with incredible energy, and with the grace and support of each of them, as well as the cooperation of the management of Sepand Theater, the performances were interrupted for five days, from November 7th. Will go on stage.

I and all the members of the group put all our energy into going to the stage of the last work and souvenir of dear Sasha, and we hope to be able to bring this last wish and work of this popular and great artist to the stage in the best way.

In the end, the scene will always miss Sasha Keshvadi, dear, and her hot departure will remain on the heart of each and every one of us.
