Fouad Dakwar is a Palestinian creative committed to telling subversively revolutionary stories on stages and screens of all sizes.
It all started when an immigrant theater kid was lent an iPod Nano full of Linkin Park, Fall Out Boy, and Green Day.
Since then, Fouad Dakwar has been on a mission to usher in the revival of emo, grunge, and pop-punk. All accompanied by contemporary electronic stylings and poetically punchy turns of phrase.
Primarily a musical theater writer, Fouad's recent full-length works ('R3TURN,' 'Fouad of Nazareth') have explored the nuances of identity and the political cynicism of his generation using dark comedy, magical realism, and the punk rock idiom.
Fouad has also garnered over 5 million likes on TikTok under the handle @notfouad.
