WHITE RABBIT, RED RABBIT has been called a play. This experiment in audience participation is an experience that has become a global sensation that no one is allowed to talk about. The award-winning playwright, Nassim Soleimanpour, is Iranian. While he himself has been censored in his homeland, this work has escaped his country and thus has escaped censorship and is always presented without a set or director. Each actor (it is a different actor each night, and each actor can only perform it once) opens and performs the script, following Soleimanpour's instructions, before the audience that evening. They experience it right along with the audience for the first time. WHITE RABBIT, RED RABBIT is a unique experience that is different each night and is unlike anything you've experienced before
It is hard to review a show that you're not allowed to talk about, but the show (I wouldn't exactly call it a play, in the true sense of the word) does heavily involve the audience and asks them to take photos and send reviews to the playwright. The audience is given his email address during the beginning moments. Mostly, without giving too much a way, this experience is about manipulation of both the audience and of the actor. The playwright also tells a story, which is where the title comes from, about a relative who performed a social experiment on rabbits.Videos
