Iran Producers Network

The Iran Producers' Network was launched in November 2008 around the Barbican's Iran: New Voices season of work. The network aims to sustain and continue building relationships between Iranian and UK theatre artists and producers, and to provide a support network for UK producers interested in engaging with Iranian theatre.
