می‌خوام یک کم از خودمون و گروه‌ بی‌نظیرمون بگم. می‌خوام بگم که چه‌قدر همه‌مون عاشق تئاتر هستیم.
ما یک‌سال با جون و دل برای این نمایش زحمت کشیدیم و فکر می‌کنم که کم کاری نیست که به دو زبان اجرا می‌کنیم. برای اولین بار یک کمپانی کاملن ایرانی در فصل تئاتری یک کمپانی مهم کانادایی قرار گرفته.
مطمئن‌م بعد از این دری به روی تئاتر ایرانی در کمپانی‌های کانادایی باز خواهد شد.
خیلی‌ها مهربون بودند توی این مدت و هر جور تونستن ما رو حمایت کردند. پست گذاشتن، استوری کردن، پیام‌های محبت‌آمیز و دل‌گرم‌کننده دادن. خیلی‌ها اومدن نمایش‌مون رو دیدن و حمایت‌مون کردن. خیلی‌ها هم هنوز نیومدن که خیلی ممنون می‌شم توی این هفته‌ی آخری که مونده بیان و ما رو حمایت کنن و به ما انگیزه بدن.
تئاتر کار کردن به زبانی غیر از زبان مادری کار بسیار بسیار سختی‌ه. ممنون می‌شم این پست رو منتشر کنین و بیاین نمایش‌مون رو ببینین.

Earworm at Crow’s Theatre is a must-see amid foreign interference inquiry.
J. KELLY NESTRUCK, The Globe and Mail

While the federal inquiry into foreign interference is on a break, Commissioner Justice Marie-Josée Hogue and Canadian MPs of all stripes should take the opportunity to travel to Toronto to see Nowadays Theatre’s Earworm, a play that skilfully dramatizes the issues at stake regarding our democratic freedoms.
The show is a hair-raising piece of political theatre, written and directed by Mohammad Yaghoubi.
Meanwhile, playing Homa, Keykhaii – who co-founded Nowadays Theatre with Yaghoubi in 2016 – is simply electric, especially in delivering her artfully constructed podcast polemics.
It was an illuminating experience that I’m sure it would be, too, for any commissioners and politicians who buy a ticket.
