As two brothers fall in love with the same woman they must come to grips with the accidental death of their father in this sensitive drama set in Miami.

From the man who brought you "Yevaylen" and "Nayev" comes a hilarious peek into the Armenian condition and the necessity of laughter in life. Vahe’s third hysterically funny and engaging monologue tackles diverse topics such as family, marriage, surveys, concentrating on the Armenian American identity and finally the importance of laughter. Along with personal stories and meditations on the Armenian condition, Vahe tries to find an answer to the question “Are the Armenians truly happy, or – as an Irish newspaper claims – are we the saddest nation on the planet?” Vahe performed Dagaveen for over four months at Rococo in Pasadena, California, and has taken the show on the road to various cities in the U.S., Canada and Europe to packed audiences.

A hilarious monologue about growing up in an Armenian family in Lebanon. Vahé describes his experiences as a member of the Armenian Diaspora. The monologue was performed live in several cities across the US. A performance of this piece was recorded live on video at Rococo, in Pasadena, California in August 2000.
