Modern Times Stage Company is proud to announce our return to Canada after a successful international co-production of the acclaimed play Aurash with OKC Abrašević in Mostar, Bosnia-Herzegovina. Throughout the month of May, Artistic Director Soheil Parsa led a cast of local actors and a production team including Modern Times' Sue Balint and Peter Farbridge in a local language production of Araš. Originally adapted and translated by Soheil Parsa and Brian Quirt from a short story by Bahram Beyza'I, Araš was presented on June 5th and 6th at OKC Abrašević, receiving much attention in the local and national media and an enthusiastic response from audiences. OKC Abrašević will present Araš in repertory in the coming months, with the possibility of touring the production to major centres throughout the region. For everything Mostar...production photos...local coverage, you're at the right place. It's all here on the blog.
