Three Tall Persian Women
Stage Play 

When Golnar, a punkish Iranian-American millennial, returns home to her mother, Nasrin, for the anniversary of her father’s passing, she walks into hoards of family memorabilia that her grandmother, Mamani, moved in with her. Golnar tries to get “the dames” to get rid of some stuff, but Nasrin restrains. While getting ready for the anniversary gathering, Golnar searches for her lost box of medicinal shrooms. As the evening intensifies within the cramped space, Golnar comes to find out the dames are trying to set-her up with a family-friend, Arash.
Who survives the night? What’s inside the tea that everyone’s drinking?
