LONDON, June 19 (IranMania) – The Iranian play ?The Cursed Destiny of
Lady Macbeth? directed by Ezzatollah Mehravaran will be participating
in the Armono International Theater Festival in Armenia in September,
MNA reported.

The play was written in 1975, but it was never staged. ?I decided to
prepare the play for entry at this festival as it is focusing on solo
theater performances, Mehravaran commented.

?The Armenian actress Arineh Sarkisian will be unaccompanied in this
production, which will be performed in Persian and perhaps also in
Armenian at the festival,? he added.

?The Cursed Destiny of Lady Macbeth? recounts the story of a theater
actress named Lyrinc who has been practicing Shakespeare?s ?Macbeth?.

She finally manages to get given the role of Lady Macbeth only to
become ill and confined to bed in hospital. Doctors lose all hope in
her regaining health.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
