Emil Wakim: My Way

Soho Theatre
18 Jul · £24

My Way follows SNL alum Emil Wakim as he circles questions of identity, guilt, and the quiet pressure of living in the 21st century, where everything feels urgent and nothing feels fully real. It’s about spirituality, an unravelling world, and the small, everyday things people do just to feel okay—shedding old beliefs, picking up new ones, and never quite trusting any of them.

That’s Life
