We Made it @ Counterpulse

Lebanese poets Jessica Semaan and Halim Madi are proud to present "We Made It", a pulsating exploration of the immigrant experience in pursuit of the American Dream. Through seven vignettes, the two unpack the transformative journey of the immigrant body as it navigates new identities. The words “We Made It” hint at both survival and success. The show questions the elusive promise of 'home'. The poets provide a raw lens on the complexities of adaptation and belonging. More than a performance; this is an invitation to rechart the journeys we’ve been on, outside the stranglehold of both achievement and endurance.
