I am Sama Mousavi, a theatre creator who moves between worlds and languages. Born in Iran, shaped by Germany, and now rooted in Canada, I carry Farsi, German, and English as threads that weave through my art. Theatre has always been more than performance for me, it is a space where memory breathes, where silence becomes voice, where the personal transforms into the collective. From the streets of Tehran to festival stages, from research halls in Hamburg to black box theatres in Toronto, I have sought one thing: to let hidden stories find light. For me, theatre is not only art, it is education, healing, and self-discovery. It is the courage to stand in one’s own truth, and the hope that by doing so, we open space for others to stand in theirs.
