Description

A perfectly executed clusterf*ck masterpiece of a life story, Halal Habibis follows comedian Hanan Issa's wild journey to get married as a young Muslim woman born and raised in NYC. Having lost her mother at nine years old, Hanan dives into her childhood and reflects on how the passing of her mother affected her attitude whilst growing up towards love, relationships and Islam. Halal Habibis is genuinely a vulnerable and hilarious show that highlights the true meaning of resiliency, hope and delusions in the manifestations of a Lebanese woman.
