Lina Abyad holds a PhD from the Sorbonne Nouvelle (Paris) in Theatre Studies. She is currently an Associate Professor in Communication Arts Department (theater) at the Lebanese American University- Beirut. She trained in Paris with Jacques Lecoq, Arianne Mnouchkine and Tadeusz Kantor.

Based in Beirut, she has staged more than 40 plays and directed several workshops in Beirut and the Middle East. She has staged classical texts as well as adaptations ranging from Franz Kafka to Elias Khouri or Sun Mi Hwang. Several themes haunt her stage: the Lebanese Civil War, women, Palestine and Arab dictatorships. She has started recently working on documentary plays based on interviews she conducts. She tackles in these plays the lives of battered women, Lebanese tr*******al struggle, q***r women bodies, and lately the Palestinian highjack daughter’s memoir. More recently, she devised a piece about the everyday struggle of the Syrian refugees. She has initiated a series of productions in hospitals addressing women and cancer based on a text written by Abir Hamdar.

Since 2014, Abyad has been engaged in creating theatre pieces about domestic violence an issue close to her heart.
The theatre she creates is socially and politically engaged with highly controversial and crucial issues for the Middle Eastern region.

Lina Abyad is a founder member of Beirut 8:30 Theatre Company which has produced more than 10 plays. The first production of this company, The Dictator by Issam Mahfouz and directed by Lina Abyad won the prize of His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi Prize for the best Arab play for 2012.
