At this special event, playwright Nahal Navidar discussed the world premiere of My Dear Hussein, a new play that portrays the Iran-Iraq War of the 1980’s as understood from the perspective of a young Iranian girl. Cast members performed an excerpt from this new play, after which Jamil Khoury, co-founder of Silk Road Rising, engaged in a lively conversation with Navidar on the inspirations for her work and its powerful resonance with the world today.
