Message from the Deputy of Artistic Affairs for the 43rd International Fadjr Theater Festival

According to the Public Relations of the 43rd International Fadjr Theater Festival, Nadereh Rezaie's message to this cultural and artistic event states:

In the name and remembrance of God,
The 43rd holding of the festival signifies maturity and the accumulation of unparalleled experiences in the field of theater. It is heartening that each time the theater festival is held and we review the documents from previous editions, we can look at what we have in theater and think about a bright future in this field.
The International Fadjr Theater Festival has always been one of the most important events that has transferred the flow of theater from the center and capital to the entire country, and for this reason, it can be a significant venue for the province's theater in every edition, as the prelude to the theater festival across the country means the presence of theater practitioners in the performance arena and an important test among theater personnel to showcase their works at an international festival.
In contemporary times, theater, beyond what is performed on stage and outside theater halls, has a profound impact on human society. Despite all the advancements that have taken place in the field of digital media, which theater practitioners creatively utilize in their works to strengthen their aesthetic perspectives, human society still has an unmediated connection with theater artists. The old adage among enthusiasts of theatrical art, which states that actors bring a life story to the stage face-to-face with the audience, is reiterated. It is the miracle of theater that, despite all the extraordinary and astonishing capabilities created in the realm of imagery, theater is still alive and maintains a more vibrant relationship with the audience than ever before.
I extend my gratitude to all those involved in the 43rd Fadjr Theater Festival, the secretariat, the Performing Arts Department, the Theater Arts Association, and all the artists who generously submitted their works to the festival, as well as the esteemed artists from the provinces and all those who hold theater dear to their hearts. I wish them all success and prosperity, and I hope that the 43rd Fadjr Theater Festival can add another chapter to our theatrical experiences.
