BIO
Nima Rakhshanifar is an Iranian-American actor, singer, and musician from the Bay Area. Studying music at the age of four with Mohammad Nejad, this early exposure to art motivated Nima to explore different mediums of storytelling. With the support of their friends and loved ones, Nima graduated from PCPA - Pacific Conservatory Theatre in Santa Maria, CA. Since then, they have worked regionally at Steppenwolf Theatre, Barrington Stage Company, Chicago Shakespeare Theater, Milwaukee Repertory Theater, Victory Gardens, ACT Seattle, TheatreWorks SV, and South Coast Rep.
Nima’s need to tell stories can also be traced back to their childhood, when they used to translate films into Farsi for their grandmother. Since then, Nima has been consistently honing their skills, and always embracing new opportunities to touch people’s lives through stories.

Review: BALD SISTERS at Steppenwolf Theatre Company
What did our critic think of BALD SISTERS at Steppenwolf Theatre Company? Steppenwolf presents a new twist on the well-trod territory of the dysfunctional family drama with Vichet Chum’s BALD SISTERS. As far as dysfunctional families go, too, the family in BALD SISTERS doesn’t have the most baggage. That said, Chum’s characters still have plenty to contend with as sisters Him and Sophea mourn the loss of their mother. The play is a meditation on the circle of life, but I appreciate that BALD SISTERS is an exercise in subtlety as far as family dramas go. As a result, some of Chum’s scenes meander and don’t seem to have a purpose within the context of the play, but I like that BALD SISTERS has themes that wash over audiences rather than hit them over the head.
