Dear Beirut
When does a momentary crisis become an emergency, and what happens next? What would be the form of art
in the time of relief? How performing arts in a time of crisis reveal places and devastated cities as
a set of actions and meanings rather than tired objects? How will we move into our new environment?
After this year, nothing is remaining the same. Everything changed. And we are moving.
Monotonously.
Thankful to all the artists, actors, performers, theatre directors, musicians, architects, professors,
scientists, mentors, and friends who shared their expertise and time with me through all the past
years of my journey.
