Fringe Review
Edinburgh Festival Fringe, August 2024.
Jackalope Theatre Company, March 2025.
A coming-of-age solo play about a Middle Eastern American boy, Essa, whose parents are refugees. Essa confesses the experience of growing up in a country that doesn’t have a place for him. He navigates sexuality, the demands of a religion passed onto him from his parents, learning the English language, the fleetingness of youth, and a nicotine demon that won't leave him alone.
Absurd. Raw. Untold.
