Abstrakt: This study examined the discourses of two dramatic texts written by Naghmeh Samini according to the hegemony of the time of production and consumption of the text. The plays Sheklak and Khab dar Fenjan-e Khali were published in between 2004 and 2008. The selected texts were used over the same time as the fundamentalist government governed. In this research, the plays were not studied as mere artistic texts, but as a linguistic elements that include different discourses. Using Fairclough's critical discourse analysis, the social practice of dramatic texts were investigated. Using his three-stage model, i.e., analyzing the text, finding the discourse practice, and finding the social practice, the texts were analyzed. The results showed that the ruling discourse of that time had an impact on the formation of texts, and at the same time, the discourses used by the author in the plays are based on the author's gender and some other characteristics. The discourse is far from the articulation of the hegemonic discourse of the time. Although the author tries to distance himself from hegemony by using linguistic tools, yet the extent of this distance and how ideology and power are reflected in the texts can be examined.
