Zoukak was established in 2006 as a horizontal theatre collective committed to artistic practice as a form of social and political engagement. Each performance addresses issues that challenge the status quo, resonating with the context in which it operates and beyond.

Over the years, Zoukak has performed and collaborated both regionally and internationally, participating in numerous international festivals. Locally, the collective remains dedicated to decentralizing culture by presenting its work across Lebanon, reaching diverse audiences in various regions.

Zoukak continuously diversifies its theatre tools, applying them in contexts such as social engagement, therapy, and education. The collective also fosters dialogue and reflection around the performing arts, aiming to cultivate a supportive environment for artistic development and provide training opportunities for local artists in Lebanon and beyond. 

Zoukak remains steadfast in fostering dialogue and critical reflection within Lebanon’s performing arts landscape. Since 2013, we have curated Zoukak Sidewalks, a bi-annual international festival, alongside a constellation of initiatives designed to support emerging local artists.
