About the play:

​

Homa, a long-time immigrant from Iran who fled persecution from the Islamic regime, must navigate the complex emotions that arise when her son falls in love with a conservative Muslim woman. As Homa's past resurfaces in present-day Toronto, their future happiness is tested, inviting the audience to empathize with their emotional journey.

Inspired by actual events, EARWORM is a stunning depiction of the far-reaching impact of the Iranian revolutions of 1979 and 2022 through themes of love, power, parenting, and political asylum.
