Theatre row 410west 42nd street new york,In Spring 2025, Jocasta took the stage at United Solo, the world’s largest solo theatre festival. Directed by Howard Rosenstein and written by Mohammad Reza Ghodsevali, this breathtaking one-woman performance brought a bold new voice to an ancient myth. Through raw emotion and masterful storytelling, Shadi Yazdani reimagined Jocasta, not as a victim of fate, but as a fierce symbol of resistance.
Turning tragedy into defiance, Jocasta reclaimed her voice and challenged the misogynistic narratives that have silenced women for centuries. This was theatre at its most urgent, for those who believe in the strength of women and the transformative power of untold stories. Not just a retelling — a reinvention.
