Praise for Parmida
“NNNNN. The knotted emotional history is tangible: Vand evokes Nahid’s insecurity and frustration, aggravated by her husband’s sad resignation.”
On Winter of '88, Lisa McKeown for Now Magaine
“Those tense exchanges expressed through Vand’s beautiful changes in emphasis as she reacts to her brother’s hopes and fears (unheard by the audience) call up the most powerful sense of what Canada might be.”
On The New Canadian Curling Club, James Stewart Reaney for London Fuse
“Parmida Vand is excellent as Fatima, the Syrian refugee. ...her English language struggles and retorts are hilarious.”
On The New Canadian Curling Club, Mary Alderson for Entertain This Thought
"Vand gives us an engaging and entertaining Jaques... her pessimism rings with the air of a realist resigned to the true nature of the world, which can often be a cruel joke."
On As You Like It, Cate McKim for Life With More Cowbell
