Currently unpublished, 2002 (Armenian)
A Wet Paint Production, in association with Promegrate Pictures.
Directed by Sevag Vrej; Produced by Betty Berberian and Sevag
Vrej.
Another raucously funny monologue covering a variety of subjects,
including such topics as life after 40, the Armenian condition
in the Diaspora, and Vahé's experience of visiting Armenia
for the first time. The piece was performed to packed venues in
over a dozen cities throughout the world.
Vahé performed Nayev for over three months at Rococo
in Pasadena, California. A performance of this piece was recorded
live on video in July, 2002. According to Vahé, "Nayev
is, in many ways, the continuation of his earlier monologue, Yevaylen.
He explains,"Nayev includes even more stories about
my family, along with meditations on being an Armenian in the
diaspora. It also contains reflections and impressions of my trips
to Armenia."
According to one of the producers of the show, Betty Berberian,
"We produced the video for those who missed the performances,
as well as for those who couldn't get enough."
