2026 Syrian Soap Opera Comedy Show (SF)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Syrian Soap is an absurdist comedic solo show inspired by Syrian soap operas and set in an intergalactic bathhouse in the afterlife.

Eat, pray, bathe with Edib Farhan’s bumptious, mustachioed ancestor and find out if you are your ancestor’s wildest dream — or worst nightmare. Expect channeled advice, poetry, clowning, and a surprise visit from a traditional Syrian bathroom slipper, which may or may not be a metaphor for life under fascism.

Beneath the silliness and suds, Syrian Soap is a love letter to revolution and exile — an invitation to unlock joy and self-expression in a world on fire.

Winner of the 2026 Hollywood Fringe Scholarship, funded by Hollywood Pantages Theatre and County Supervisor Lindsey P. Horvath. Directed and co-devised by Nata
