The ritual ceremony of Ghanbar’s Elegy has been held in Fasa city for about one century. Mulla Mohammad Ismail Matbuei, who was one of the tragedians in Ta’zieh, eulogists, and Ta’zieh director, has written the poems of this version of the Ta’zieh in more than a hundred years ago, roughly between 1289 and 1299 Hijri. In this research paper, we first try to introduce Mulla Mohammad Ismail Matbuei and then investigate the elements of play in the Ghanbar’s Elegy Ta’zieh. Moreover, a cross-sectional approach is taken – along with concepts like personality type, depth of thought, story map, character, time and place, conditions, and dialogues – to fully recognize the elements of theater in Ghanbar’s Elegy with philosophical-ideological, sociological, and artistic functions.
