Nine Armenians

Nine Armenians $13

Leslie Ayvazian

Published by Dramatists Play Service

5 Male 5 Female

Three generations of an Armenian-American family yell, dance, carry food around, play tambourines, rollerblade, cry, scream, laugh and support each other

When daughter, Ani, 21, travels to Armenia, she learns more of her history and troubled heritage. When she returns, she learns much from her recently widowed her grandmother, Non, who teaches her how to incorporate this new knowledge into her life

In doing so, Ani empowers her mother, who embarks on her own pilgrimage to the homeland. These are kind-hearted people, embracing life even as they discover their historical tragedies

" Ayvazian's obvious personal explorationis evocative, and her picture of an American Life colored nostalgically by an increasingly alien ethnic tradition, is persuasively embedded into a script of a certain supple grace " ~ NY Post

" Ni Armanians is a warm, likable work that benefits from Ayvazian's clear-headed insight into the dynamics of a close-knit family " ~ Variety
