I still have 3 weeks left in Canada before heading home 🇱🇧, and I want to thank everyone who’s been coming to the weekly open mics we’ve been hosting with @mood.de7ek . It’s truly heartwarming to see the local comedy scene growing and so many talented acts emerging.
I can’t wait to celebrate my Canadian farewell with my new show FEENA NEHKE?
📍 Toronto — June 1
📍 Ottawa — June 2
📍 Montreal (the city I’ll miss the most) — June 4
Excited, nervous and grateful to be bringing my 1st English set to the Edinburgh Fringe this year, the biggest arts festival in the world! 💃
Also very confident we’ll leave with an award. Maybe not for comedy… but for longest show title in Fringe history.
So if you’re in Edinburgh this August, or know English-speaking people who enjoy comedy and broken English spoken with confidence, come watch.

It’s OFFICIAL: I’ll be performing my English debut show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, August 6–30.
This one isn’t for my Arabic-speaking friends (though you’re welcome if you want to watch me struggle in my third language), but I’m counting on you to send your English-speaking friends my way.
I’m excited, nervous, and grateful to be taking this step. It may be small, and it might take some time but it’s part of a dream I always had.
Tickets are already available on the Fringe website, linked in my bio.
I’ll also be testing my English set in Montreal on May 23, DM us for the ticket link.
@anthonytouma , one of the most genuine people we’ve met in Dubai, we feel incredibly lucky to have had the chance to record this episode of Sakaa with him a few months ago (even though it feels like a lifetime). The episode is now out and available on YouTube and all podcast platforms.
يكتب جون أشقر: "اليوم، الواقع ماثل أمامنا. لبنان لا تحكمه دولة واحدة متماسكة، هو مشرذم بين مراكز قوى متنافسة: الدولة الرسمية، والنظام الأمني والسياسي الموازي لـ"حزب الله"، والمنظومة المالية والمصرفية التي أسهمت في إنتاج أحد أسوأ الانهيارات في تاريخ لبنان الحديث.
الحكومة الحالية لم تخلق كل هذا، لقد ورثت اقتصاداً منهاراً، ومؤسّسات ضعيفة، وقطاعاً عاماً مدمَّراً، ونظاماً مصرفياً معطّلاً، وطبقة سياسية منقسمة، وبلداً أنهكته الحرب. لكنّ قول ذلك لا ينبغي أن يتحوّل إلى مديح أعمى، فالحكومة يجب أن تُقاس بما تنجزه: الشفافية، والمساءلة، وإعادة الإعمار، وحماية المواطنين، واستعادة الخدمات العامّة".
