Amir Darvish
Amir Darvish is an American actor who is best known for his portrayal of rock icon Freddie Mercury in the Off Broadway 1997 play Mercury: The Afterlife and Times of a Rock God. In 2003, after two successful runs of the play (in 1997 and 1998), the show's producers mounted the play again in New York City, with Darvish playing the role of Mercury and play author Charles Messina directing. The show moved to the Triad Theater (also in New York City) in January, 2004. BackStage said of Darvish's performance: "Amir Darvish brings an almost Shakespearean theatricality, sardonic humor, and passionate intensity to his interpretation ... Darvish...keeps you riveted throughout ... Darvish sustains the illusion right till the end in bravura fashion." Darvish is of Persian descent. Filmography
