In 2009, Amiri was credited as the production photographer for Gharibe dar Khaneh (غریبه در خانه; "A Stranger in the House"), a play directed by Delara Noushin and staged at Tehran's Molavi Hall.[5]
Amiri subsequently worked on the television play Hoviat (هویت; "Identity"), produced by Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting's Channel 4 in 2010.

In October 2015, Amiri was credited as the assistant director of Bernard Is Dead (برنارد مرده است), Ali Sarabi's first stage-directing production. The play was written by Mashhood Mohsenian as a free adaptation of the novel The Wolves and was prepared for performance at the Ostad Nazerzadeh Kermani Hall of the Iranshahr Theatre in Tehran.[2]
