I have cried and laughed while reading your diary of your visit to Tehran. I cant tell you how grateful I am to have had the chance to read it and have more of an insight into my fathers country,and the theatre world in Persia. As much as I still get frustrated and do wish that the changes needed would occur in Iran, I still have a sense of fondnesss when I think of their proud ways and the diffrerences in their culture to ours in Britain. If you have any more involvment out there you know I would love to be part of it. I am still in the process of waiting for my Iranian passport but 20 09 has to be the year I visit. Best wishes and thanks you Lisa Zahra Simon,what can I say? I have cried and laughed while reading your diary of your visit to Tehran.

Your blog is compelling reading and I am touched by the stories of artists who bravely make taboo work, risking their freedom for expression's sake. It certainly gives you a kick up the backside as to how lucky we are in the UK and the tour booking task that I was dreading this week now looks like a privilege. I would love to know more about the follow on to this visit, keep posting!! Carys @ Volcano Theatre Company Dear Simon,

Thank you so much for transporting me to Tehran in such a fascinating and articulate manner on this rather banal Tuesday afternoon at the office. Your blog is compelling reading and I am touched by the stories of artists who bravely make taboo work, risking their freedom for expression’s sake. It certainly gives you a kick up the backside as to how lucky we are in the UK and the tour booking task that I was dreading this week now looks like a privilege.

I would love to know more about the follow on to this visit, keep posting!!

I didn't think we were being brave at all and it was certainly more daunting in expectation than in reality. Thanks for your comment.
