MEET THE CARTOZIANS

About the show

Part riveting historical drama, part scorching satire, Talene Monahon’s Meet the Cartozians pulls back the curtain on a startling chapter of American history you may never have heard. This bold, witty new play follows two sets of Armenian Americans: one man fighting for legal recognition in the 1920s, while a century later, his descendant fights for followers and a competent glam team. A wildly imaginative and deeply compelling story of culture and heritage, Meet the Cartozians asks who gets to belong — and at what cost? Tony Award winners Andrea Martin and Will Brill star in Meet the Cartozians alongside Raffi Barsoumian, Nael Nacer, Susan Pourfar, and Tamara Sevunts.
