Golden Thread Productions 2026 Season

New Threads Reading Series:

A COUNTRY MADE OF SALT
Written by Denmo Ibrahim
Rehearsals: 4/5 through 4/8
Performance: 4/10, 4/11, & 4/12

SYNOPSIS: A baker, a mystic, and a falcon walk into an office one stormy night… Rabia Haddad is on a mission to discover a lost history. But as she builds her map, the archive begins to talk back, blurring the lines between testimony, memory and myth. Could it be that the one story she needs most is her own? A play about inheritance, letting go, and the desire to belong to something larger than yourself, A Country Made of Salt invites us to reflect on the stories we keep — and what stories keep us.

ReOrient Festival of Short Plays
Rehearsal begins: 8/31
Performance: 10/9 - 11/1

CAMOUFLAGE
Written by Ahmed Masoud

SYNOPSIS: Thaer is a thirteen-year-old boy on a boat in the waters between Turkey and Greece, something is troubling him and it is not the fact that he might drown any minute. Nibal is a seventeenyear-

actor; he has to play a few roles in Haifa in order to build his CV and get known with Israeli established directors. Camouflage is a one person show, which presents a collage of theatrical genres taking the audience on a journey of what it means to live under occupation

REGARDING ANTIGONE
Written by Banafsheh Hassani

SYNOPSIS: A new solo show inspired by a true story, the classic Greek tragedy of Antigone, war photography, my weak memory, a revolution, state propaganda, a song she sang, and cringe diaspora poetry where “every line is a call to action”.

HOMING PIGEONS & CO
Written by Hasti Jafari Jozani

SYNOPSIS: Two friends develop a weekly ritual of attending the Iranian diaspora protests in San Francisco every weekend, to try to prevent their countrymen from being executed in the Islamic public prisons. But their differences become more disastrous with each passing day, and as
activism takes a toll on them, it takes everything they got to not murder each other.

BLOOD FRUIT

Written by Hannah Khalil

SYNOPSIS: It tells the true story of Mary Manning a young shop worker in Dublin in the 1980s who refused to handle a South African grapefruit and convinced her coworkers to strike. It took years of hardship, but the women kept their nerve and eventually their actions lead to a fundamental change in the Irish government’s attitude to apartheid - they stopped trade with South Africa proving boycotts can work.
