Very pretty.
Nice. Persians dominated arts, music, poetry and literature for centuries and investing in cultural infrastructure signifies a nations influence and richness. Iranians have provided civilization with immense cultural landmarks from Central Asia to India.
Very impressive. Good to see that art and culture are valued as a necessary part of everyday life. Who are we to thank for this?
The members of this regime were the very people that burned theaters and called it "Western".Hypocrites!
Kindly get over the FACT that the revolution was 35 years ago and life, attitudes and above all, Iran has moved on! Wallowing in misery is not very cultured or good for your spiritual growth. Best wishes.
Yes indeed the Iranian people are "wallowing in misery" due to the still born "revolution" of 35 years ago.Just look at the "Majles" and see how "cultured" the regime members are! Even animals behave better in a barn! Best wishes to you as well matey boy.
Wonder what kind of plays they will have there? Will be free from censorship?
Maybe Tazieh all the way ?
No; wrong place to look at. Rather look at US congress to find your desired animal(even you can find some zombies there!).
Wrong! The "zombies" are the ass licking yes men of Ali Geda that form the Taveleh majles!

This is the state of censorship in Iran, no matter how many new theaters they build:
