Plot Summary
Plot Summary
A Play by Mark Perry.
A country in revolution. A holy place in ruins. A dream of three dresses. 16 year-old Mona is finding out the meaning of love.
Shiraz, Iran 1982. Fanaticism runs rampant in the streets, and Mona, as a Bahá’i -- a member of Iran's largest religious minority -- is the fanatic's prime target. One night, she has an important dream. It is a dream of three dresses, each representing a different direction her life might take. In her dream and waking life, Mona makes her choice -- a choice that will lead her straight into danger's path. This touching drama for youth and adults is based on a true account and raises fundamental and challenging questions about life, faith and sacrifice for all to consider.
