John Achkar
Aam Jarrib-Tryin': A heartfelt journey through the chaos of life in your thirties, seen through the eyes of Lebanese comedian John Achkar.
In a world where everyone seems to have it all figured out (career, kids, stability ) John is still just TRYING. Trying to find his purpose, trying to make sense of life’s absurdities, and even trying marriage for the second time…
Spoiler alert: it hasn’t cleared things up for him!
In this comedy special, John brings his sharp wit and relatable humour to the stage as he navigates the crisis of both his country and his own personal life.
Come laugh along as John shares stories about family, growing up (but not too much), and the constant search for meaning.
“TRYIN’” isn’t just about figuring out life, it’s about embracing the mess, laughing at the chaos, and realizing that sometimes, trying is all we can do. This is the show that’ll leave you nodding in agreement, and feeling a little less alone in the crazy journey of life.
