It seeks to introduce Iranian cultural and mystical concepts while familiarizing the younger generation with the importance of cultural identity.<br><br>The play explores the profound mystical concepts presented in Attar\u2019s Mantiq al-Tayr, particularly the Seven Valleys of Love, which represent the stages of the spiritual journey undertaken by the seeker (salek el\u0101 Allah, one who journeys towards God). These seven valleys are the Valley of Quest, the Valley of Love, the Valley of Knowledge, the Valley of Detachment, the Valley of Unity, the Valley of Wonderment, and the Valley of Poverty and Annihilation. Each valley represents a stage of spiritual elevation and drawing closer to God. Through the artistic performances of children and young people, Simorgh-Nameh seeks to portray this spiritual journey.<br><br><strong>Secretary-General of the Iranian National Commission for UNESCO Attends the Performance, Emphasizing the Importance of Theatre for Children and Young People<\/strong><br><br>Dr. Hasan Fartousi, Secretary-General of the Iranian National Commission for UNESCO, attended the Simorgh-Nameh performance as a special guest, accompanied by his delegation. His presence reflects UNESCO\u2019s and the artistic community\u2019s recognition of the importance of theatre for children and young people. With UNESCO\u2019s moral support, Simorgh-Nameh provides a valuable opportunity to introduce and promote cultural and ethical concepts among the younger generation.<br><br><strong>Simorgh-Nameh: An Artistic and Educational Experience for Children and Young People<\/strong><br><br>Simorgh-Nameh combines theatre, orchestral music and movement design to convey mystical and ethical concepts to children and young people. Based on the story of Mantiq al-Tayr by Attar of Nishapur, the production draws on Iran\u2019s native birds to introduce the younger generation to the country\u2019s ethical, mystical and cultural concepts through a contemporary artistic language.<br><br>In addition to teaching ethical concepts, the production nurtures children\u2019s artistic talents and provides opportunities for their growth and development.<br><br>Created by Maryam Sharifzadeh and produced by Reza Fathollahi-Pour, Simorgh-Nameh exemplifies the connection between the performing arts and cultural and educational objectives. It can be regarded as an important initiative to promote culture, education and peace through art, with the potential to have a positive impact on future generations.<br><br>It is worth noting that a group of artists and specialists from various fields of performing arts, music and stage design contributed to the production and staging of the play.
