New Threads is Golden Thread’s annual staged reading series that engages its audience in the process of playmaking and allows writers of Middle Eastern and non-Middle Eastern descent an authentic and supportive space to develop work about the Middle East.Because the events that inspired the work continue to resonate so deeply, the artists wanted to share the story with audiences now rather than wait for the play's final production. Portions of the performance will be presented with scripts in hand as part of the play's ongoing development process.The title ICU operates on several levels. It references the intensive care units where injured protesters sought treatment. It declares "I see you"—the fundamental demand to be witnessed, recognized, and remembered. It also evokes the eye itself and the power of sight, which became a powerful symbol throughout the movement.The play begins on a hopeful morning in the midst of the Women, Life, Freedom protests. From there, it follows the aftermath of a single day and night, tracing the lives of women whose futures are forever altered by the choices they make and the events they endure.Through humor, resilience, grief, friendship, and extraordinary courage, ICU explores what it costs to demand your humanity—and what it takes to keep fighting for it. With some laughs.Presented by Red Poppy Art House and Golden Thread Productions.About Golden Thread ProductionsGolden Thread Productions is a San Francisco-based theatre company dedicated to exploring Middle Eastern cultures, diverse perspectives, and global immigrant experiences.

It is a place for slowness and the nuanced intermingling of ideas and activities generally termed “art.” In this little room, we present a vigorous performance program spanning multiple disciplines and embracing both traditional and contemporary forms. We also host artist residencies, a socially-engaged professional development track,and assist in curating space for the neighborhood-wide bimonthly MAPP (Mission Arts & Performance Project) happening. Behind the scenes, we relish in the role of matchmaker, seeding new relationships wherever we can, among friends and strangers, artists, community members, people without communities, people from near and far, just about anyone that comes through the door. Our desire is to serve as a space of multiplicity, not defined by a singular culture or aesthetic, but as a well-spring of socially-engaged art and discourse that invites growth and transformation. If we had to name our dominant aesthetic, we would call it… “slow.”" } ] } ] ```
