Adeeb Razzouk
Adeeb Razzouk (he/him) is a Syrian actor, director and intimacy coordinator based in Sydney. He studied a Bachelor of Theatrical Acting at the Higher Institute of Dramatic Arts in Damascus during the civil war. After graduating, he relocated to Lebanon, where he became deeply engaged with Augusto Boal’s Theatre of the Oppressed through his work with the Syrian Citizenship League. Leading workshops for displaced Syrians, he explored the power of theatre to heal, build community, and inspire social change. In March 2025, Adeeb premiered his first full-length theatre work, Papers from the Citadel, commissioned by PACT Centre for Emerging Artists and supported by Creative Australia. The production received a 5-star review from Sydney Art Guide and is currently being developed for national and international touring. In addition to his artistic practice, Adeeb has worked as an Art and Youth Engagement Worker at the Community Migrant Resource Centre (CMRC), where he established programs and pathways for migrants and refugees to access and participate in the arts in Sydney. Now embarking on a new chapter of his career abroad, Adeeb is committed to creating work that bridges cultures and communities, and to collaborating with artists and organisations dedicated to using theatre as a catalyst for dialogue and positive change.
