TEHRAN –(Iranart)- Iranian director Mohammadreza Jamal plans to stage Italian playwright Dario Fo’s “The Virtuous Burglar” (“Non tutti i ladri vengono a nuocere”) at Tehran’s Neauphle-le-Chateau Theater on January 21.
The 1958 play is about a burglar, who is interrupted by the owner of a flat and his mistress while he is burgling their house. When the owner’s wife arrives, the burglar is forced to pretend the mistress is his wife.
