FICTION

There’s the family you grew up with:  your mom, your dad, your siblings.  And then, there’s the family you carry around in your head for the rest of your life.  This show is about that second family, the one that lives within.

From Mermaid Palace, Sharon Mashihi brings you Appearances, a one woman audio show that straddles the line between fiction and truth.  Appearances brings to life an Iranian American family and community through the real and fantastical mental machinations of Melanie Barzadeh. Melanie is in her mid 30’s and desires nothing more than to become a mother. The difficulty of finding the right partner seems to be directly connected to the struggles witnessed in her home throughout her entire childhood. As Sharon Mashihi voice-acts all the characters in one family, the depth of the love, pain, and struggle is felt with honesty and humour at every turn.

SISTERS

Episode in Appearances
Executive Producer, Kaitlin Prest invites you to listen to a new series we think Appearances lovers will enjoy. It’s called SISTERS and it’s a five-episode story about an older and younger sister following their fights, their high points, their low points, and their ongoing attempt to even the balance. Can we ever re-write the birth order dynamics that get invented when we are children? Listen to Kaitlin and her sister figure it out as they look through their past and their present and work together to tell the story of it all. What we have for you here is the first episode of a new mini-season on The Heart, a long-standing show that Sharon Mashihi worked on for many years. To hear the next episodes subscribe to The Heart, wherever you get your podcasts.

Prologue

Episode in Appearances
Part A of the prologue is a note from Sharon about why this podcast is labeled "fiction". Part B is a history of the town of Great Neck, as told by Faribah, the neighbor across the street. As Faribah always likes to say, "In this neighborhood, the windows are very important. What can you see when you look out of them, and what can everybody else see when they look in?"
