Actor and storyteller Meysam Forooz is a graduate of the Mezrab Storytelling School. Many of his stories are based on his life in Iran, the country he fled in 2014. In 2021 he made his first solo with co-creator Sahand Sahebdivani, Four Weddings and an Iranian Funeral, about the lives of gay men in Iran. The daring piece played on Dutch stages as well as during Europride in Belgrade.
Sahand Sahebdivani is one of the founders of the Mezrab Storytelling School as well as an accomplished performer. He won the Amsterdam Fringe Gold award in 2017 and since 2018 he is the co-artistic director of the Amsterdam Storytelling Festival. Sahand also has an Iranian refugee background, which makes him the perfect partner for the work of Meysam.
