Meet the Cartozians: Two Timelines, One Armenian American Story
In this episode of “Half Hour”, we take a closer look at Meet the Cartozians, Talene Monahon’s new play at Second Stage Theater’s Irene Diamond Stage at the Pershing Square Signature Center. We trace the dual timelines, from an Armenian American family fighting for legal recognition in the 1920s to a present‑day descendant navigating reality‑TV fame and social media, and how the play uses that structure to ask who gets to belong in America.
Our conversation digs into David Cromer’s staging, the tonal balance between historical drama and contemporary satire, and performances from Raffi Barsoumian, Will Brill, Andrea Martin, Nael Nacer, Susan Pourfar, and Tamara Sevunts. We also talk about where the piece could go next, how it might evolve in future productions, and why this kind of Armenian American story feels urgent right now.
