Taipei Poetry Festival
Soukaina will be the first Arab poet to participate in the Taipei Poetry Festival in Taiwan, where she will present a poetry reading and a theatrical poetry performance at the Nini Ya Momo theater, in both Arabic and Chinese. Over two days, she will collaborate with Taiwanese theater artist Kai-Lin Huang in intensive rehearsals, under the direction of French theater practitioner Henri Jules Julien. This opportunity marks a significant milestone in Soukaina’s career, allowing her to engage with poets and artists from around the world while bringing her poetry to the stage in a theatrical adaptation and translating her poems into Chinese language.
