ليه خلّتني أحبك Another Lover's Discourse (matinee)

  • The MAC 10 Exchange Street West Belfast, Northern Ireland, BT1 2NJ United Kingdom (map)

This performance will be followed by a post-show Q&A with Riham Isaac.

3 years ago, Riham embarked on a journey to explore what it means to love; what ideas do we have about it and what is holding her back from it?


Another Lover’s Discourse ليه خلّتني أحبك is Riham’s first solo performance created and performed by her. She mashes up interviews with friends, family and strangers, combining video, music, performance, and original film to explore the complexity of love and relationships.

Suitable for ages 14+

Written, directed and performed by Riham Issac.
