TEHRAN –Iranian director Shiva Dinarvand plans to stage Romanian-French playwright and novelist Matei Visniec's play "Three Nights with Madox" in Tehran in near future. 

Masoud Keramati, Bahareh Rahnama, Vahid Nafar, Javad Yahyavi and Milad Ramezani are the main members of the cast for the play.

"Three Nights with Madox" is a play that centers around the arrival of a stranger named Madox in a harbor town full of struggling individuals. 

As he settles into the town, everyone soon learns that Madox is not like the others, and his mere presence begins to unravel the secrets and lies of the tight-knit community.

Through three nights, the characters are forced to confront their pasts and come to grips with the issues that plague them. The play is a truthful portrayal of how individuals can struggle and be trapped in their lives, but how one stranger can ignite hope and provide a chance for redemption.
