Ali Oji in Lost Pieces of a Marriage Story at New Covent Garden Theatre

The play “Lost Pieces of a Marriage Story” (Khorde-Ravayat-haye Zan-o-Shohari), written and directed by Mohammad Rahmanian, is a social-psychological work that delves into the relationship between husband and wife and the hidden layers of married life.

At the heart of the comedy/musical play is the shared life of a couple; their conversations, memories, misunderstandings, and the small and large lies that have formed between them over the years gradually unfold on stage. With a tone that is both sincere and subtly humorous, the play speaks of love, fatigue, dependency, and the emotional battles between man and woman — showing how, in close relationships, truth is rarely simple or one-sided.

In essence, “Lost Pieces of a Marriage Story” holds up a mirror to the everyday lives of many couples — a space between love and resentment, between silence and conversation — where everyone carries their own version of the truth.
