Set in Los Angeles during the Iranian festival of No Rooz ("new day"), this wonderful new play explores the generational and cultural conflicts of an Iranian family split by revolution. With insight and humor, Slices alumna Margy Kahn portrays the struggle between an Iranian woman and her Americanized teen-aged daughter. Adolescent excesses charge the force field of cultural conflict, as each character comes to understand that neither Iranian nor American society has all the answers.
