#9 Sharon Mashihi

Sharon is the creator of Man Choubam and Appearances - a one-woman audio show about an Iranian family, “where appearances are important and the daughter is a liability to the family’s reputation”. When I listen to Sharon’s work I feel like I’ve been placed inside a film set and scene by scene, I’m walking through the story; visualising and getting to know every character. Sharon spoke with us about beginnings, finding the premise and first line of your story and asking yourself, what is the universal question or statement at the top of this story?
