Take a look at “The Bed in Room 23 of the Atlantic Hotel” / Wayne Secret to the Seal

Fars News Agency, Cinema and Theater Group: The play “The Throne in Room 23 of the Atlantic Hotel” is the latest work by Tino Salehi, one of the few works that has done justice to the life and suicide of the world champion. The lives of famous people throughout human history have always aroused the curiosity of individuals and the branches of society have their sensitivities in this regard. Perhaps the main reason for people’s curiosity is the secret of success of such people, and an escape to the question: what is the secret of success and achievement of human success? How do successful people live and how do they spend their moments? Although the type of curiosity is different at each point in time, there is no difference in the mood and quality of the subject and they are all of the same gender.

The stage is designed in the shape of a ship’s mattress and shows the fact that life has emerged as a powerful opponent against the throne. A life that was full of troubles for him, both when he was alive and when he died. Displays frequently asked questions about bed life on a white screen at the bottom of the stage. A trick that brings the play closer to the boundaries of documentary theater and adds to the appeal of the play. Questions like: How much right do we have to be curious about the lives of celebrities? The play narrates the concerns and occupations of the bed from childhood to the moment of death in simple yet dramatic language. He has taken the boring moments of his life out of the show and instead designed and expanded the vivid and influential moments.

“Takhti…” in going back and forth to the past and present, in addition to creating theatrical charm, tries to provide a correct understanding of Takhti’s character. The riddle of Takhti’s life was based on the fact that he struck the stones of the people and especially the needy people in the streets and bazaars all his life and was at the peak of his popularity. His death was so shocking that it is still considered to be the most unbelievable death an Iranian has ever had. A death that shocked not only Iran, but also the world of sports. The main burden of the play’s narrative is based on the last moments of Takhti’s life, and he tries to shed some light on the mystery of his death by choosing a neutral approach. But deciphering this issue has not been and is not easy due to its sensitivity. The deathbed was painful.

The people who had made him an idol, with the rumors that were spread after his death, blurred the line between truth and rumor, and it was no longer clear which part of the stories being told were true and which part of his life were rumors and lies. Is. The throne appeared in two areas throughout his life. He was a bed for the people and Gholamreza was for his family. His sincere effort to do all the things in his life and the lives of others had filled his whole mind, and in the process he left no doubt, not even for a moment. He knew he was doing the right thing, and he insisted. Even his struggles with the elements of the previous regime were based on this. Takhti’s paternal lands were occupied as a child by the Railway Company, whose seeds were sown at the same time, and the father got into trouble.

Takhti vowed to take revenge on this issue, but with all the power and popularity he had among the people, he could not afford it because the opponent was much more powerful than him. Why is the throne for everyone, the world is the champion of the throne, but it can not do anything for itself? He saw many hardships and humiliations during the nationalization of the oil industry due to his opposition to the regime and his support for Dr. Mossadegh. What more humiliation than to be barred from the racetracks and wrestling mats you love? He was fired from his job on the railroad and his family’s livelihood was in trouble. Takhti did not raise an eyebrow in appearance, but he did not spare any effort in shaping the lives of the poor. The debts of the bed, part of which were incurred by his wife, increased to the point that the bed could no longer be paid.

The scandal was one of the worst blows to the throne. The last piece of the puzzle was his fourth place in the World Championships, which made him feel defeated. The blows of work that pushed the life of the throne to death and nothingness. Gholamreza Takhti later became a loser and a debtor who was pressed by the contradictions of life at every moment and plunged him further into his cocoon of loneliness and inefficiency. The throne, once a symbol of heroism and chivalry, had now become an isolated and bankrupt human being whose inner and outer contradictions made him more and more tired and broken every moment.

Takhti then goes to a hotel near where he lives to be alone. He puts 37 years of his life on the circle to make the most important decision of his life. On this night, the most important memories of the world of Pahlavan are reviewed: the occupation of his father’s lands by railways for the construction and expansion of railways, personal and family problems, people’s expectations of him and his spirit of chivalry and masculinity all in front of the throne. It is presented and narrated. Takhti is finally persuaded to disappear in the height of goodness and masculinity, so that no one is unaware of his inner world and personal life, leaving only his memories.

Now the people who made him a hero bring him down from the peak of his popularity. There are many rumors after his death, and finally, after 47 years since the death of Jahan Pahlavan, Takhti’s wife has to endure the hardships of the years without Takhti and not give up. After that, his wife and Babak, his only child, live in isolation for many years, amid many accusations; Without having a role in this situation. Moments of the play are about Shahla Takhti’s wife. This part of the play is so prominent that you feel the play is more about his wife than the bed. The oppression inflicted on her and the bitter fate that awaits her after Takhti’s death prepare Shahla to become a hero in the life of Gholamreza Takhti. The throne was a nation in itself, and in many cases it made the poor happy, but in the most difficult moments no one took their hand. The same people who took him to the highest peaks of fame and popularity, they also knocked him down. Abroad, the throne is a symbol of chivalry and masculinity, while in the country there is still much curiosity about his personal life. The man who fell victim to his fame and popularity.

The design of the stage, the mezzanines and the direction of the play as a whole are among the strengths of the play. Although it has its weaknesses, it is generally an acceptable work of the director that we have seen good performances in the years before him. Good games along with proper stage design are other strengths of the show that can be mentioned here. Takhti in Room 23 of the Atlantic Hotel is a creatively paid play about a myth of a contemporary genius who tries to approach his existential dimensions with a logical look and give a more accurate picture of his character and times.
