In this irreverent and capriciously clever performance, Tara Grammy slips into the personas of an aging Iranian engineer-cum-taxi driver, a fabulously gay Spaniard and a young Iranian-Canadian girl, all trying to get through the daily grind in the big city. Over the course of an hour, their stories intertwine, and themes of displacement, immigration, home and culture are explored. An award winner at both the New York and Toronto Fringe Festivals, Mahmoud takes on racism against Middle Eastern immigrants, homophobia within immigrant communities, and media-created stigmas surrounding Iranian (and Middle Eastern) culture.
