A play. A party. An invitation to experience a culture beyond the headlines.
Forbidden to leave his country, playwright Nassim Soleimanpour distilled the experience of an entire generation in an utterly original play. No rehearsals. No director. No set. A different actor reads the script cold for the first time at each performance.
WHITE RABBIT RED RABBIT is a work about contemporary Iran and a generation born amidst the hardship of the Iran-Iraq war. It will be performed by Joey Vahedi, whose most recent credits include Lucifer on Netflix and The Chosen.
DJ PANIZ is an Iranian-American DJ, producer and recording engineer. As a DJ, her focus is to bring the vibrant sounds of the Middle East, particularly those of Iran, to the United States. At Play Hard Play Hard, she will be playing Persian classics from the 2000s alongside songs in Arabic, Kurdish and Turkish.
Play Hard Play Hard. Feb 8th. The Virgil. Doors at 8 PM.
Tickets are here.

Connor Riordan published Master Class: Transforming Your Short Film to Your First Feature with Adamma and Adanne Ebo in Upcoming Events 2023-02-02 16:48:41 -0800
Master Class: Transforming Your Short Film to Your First Feature with Adamma and Adanne Ebo
Master Classes are in-depth, interactive learning experiences focused on craft and career building and led by renowned industry experts. Topics include fiction and documentary filmmaking, TV writing and production, and navigating and succeeding in the entertainment industry.
What do Bottle Rocket, Whiplash, and Honk for Jesus, Save Your Soul have in common? All three films started out as shorts before being reimagined and expanded into feature-length films. One of the best ways to showcase your craft as a filmmaker is to write and direct a short film. Over the years, many independent filmmakers have used their short as a proof-of-concept and learning opportunity for a feature-length project. But how do you make that leap from short to feature? What should you consider creatively? How do you leverage the success of your short to find opportunities for financing? In our live, interactive three-hour Master Class, twin sisters/filmmakers Adamma and Adanne Ebo will guide you through the journey from short to feature, sharing the journey from award-winning short film to their critically acclaimed feature film Honk for Jesus, Save Your Soul (SFF ‘22) as a case study.
Topics covered include:
- Crafting your short film as a proof of concept for a feature
- Understanding each format’s strengths and weaknesses
- Expanding your story and character arcs (and letting things go)
- Financing your feature
- Building an audience through your shortlist of donors
- Evaluating attachments for cast and crew
- Production considerations when setting up your feature
If you have a disability and require accommodation in order to fully participate in this event, please complete this form, contact us at (435) 776-7790 or email us at [email protected] to discuss your specific needs. Every effort will be made to accommodate advance requests; requests made within 5 days of the event may not be guaranteed.

Connor Riordan published Exhibition reception for Material Systems: Digital Design and Fabrication in Upcoming Events 2023-02-02 16:42:47 -0800
Exhibition reception for Material Systems: Digital Design and Fabrication
This exhibit showcases the results of the Fall 2022 course Material Systems: Digital Design and Fabrication offered at the Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD). For over a decade, faculty from the GSD have collaborated with the Harvard Ceramics Program to offer an experiential learning opportunity for design students that links research and experimentation in emerging digital technologies with the context of ceramic material systems. The course combines technological developments relating to the way in which things are designed (digital modeling, simulation, generative design, etc.) and the way things are made (automation, computer-controlled equipment including robotics, advanced materials, etc.) in search of new opportunities. Each object exhibited here is the result of prototyping and experimentation during the pursuit of a research question – it represents a step in a process of exploration, rather than a finished product.
This reception is free and open to the public. RSVP is appreciated.
Two events, one address! On the same evening, the Harvard Ed Portal right next door will hold a reception for the exhibition Derealization: Kurdistan, Art & Memory by Kamal Ahmad, in partnership with Artisans Asylum. More details & registration link for the Ed Portal event here.
