IN THE SHADE OF THE MULBERRY TREE Raphael Rodan (ISR/NL) & Sahand Sahebdivani (IRN/NL)

Here, in the shade of the tree, stories begin to grow: intimate tales, unexpected laughter, and memories of conflict, connection and love. Iranian storyteller Sahand Sahebdivani and Israeli storyteller Raphael Rodan return to the stage together, united by a deep friendship spanning decades. They revisit »the house where their mothers grew up« – an imagined place beneath a mulberry tree where memory, myth, and identity intertwine. With humour, warmth and a touch of rebellion, Rodan and Sahebdivani explore what happens when two seemingly unlikely friends choose storytelling over silence. Their stories are accompanied by the angelic voice of Mary Aygetsy, who brings Armenian folk songs to life. Raphael Rodan is an award-winning theatre maker and storyteller. Together with Sahand Sahebdivani, he has co-directed the Amsterdam Storytelling Festival since 2018. Born in Iran, Sahebdivani fled to the Netherlands as a child and founded the Mezrab Cultural Center in Amsterdam in 2004, which has since become one of the world's leading stages for storytelling.
