The Middle East Institute (MEI) and comedy host Rola Z proudly present Washington, DC’s first annual ‘Traumedy’ Festival, where laughter meets healing in the most unexpected and profound ways.

On Friday, May 17, a diverse group of Arab-American and other comedians will share stories of heartache, loss and adversity at MEI with raw honesty and gut-wrenching humor. Join us for a journey of self-discovery and catharsis where every punchline is a step towards healing.

The festival program includes a panel discussion on the role of comedy in healing with leading experts on Friday, May 17 at MEI followed by an evening of comedy on Friday, May 17 (MEI) and Saturday, May 18 (BusBoys and Poets).

This festival is supported in part by the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities, which receives support from the National Endowment for the Arts.
