For many actors, the stage is more than just a platform. It’s where they discover themselves. For Lebanese actor Chris Haddad, his latest experience working on a play directed by his teacher and mentor Gabriel Yammine was nothing short of transformative.
Chris, who began his acting journey six years ago at university in Lebanon, describes this recent project as one of the most rewarding and challenging moments of his artistic career.
“It taught me a lot,” he says. “I made so many memories, some beautiful, some hard. But every single moment was worth it.”
This wasn’t just another role for Chris. It was a personal breakthrough, a reminder of why he became an actor in the first place. “I challenged myself and remembered why I chose to be an actor,” he reflects. “There’s something about being on stage that brings out the truth in me.”
A Role, A Day, A Life Changing Lesson
One of the biggest moments came just before the performance. Chris had to learn and perform a new role in a single day.
“It was crazy,” he recalls. “But it showed me that if you truly love something, nothing can stop you. Not time, not fear, not even pressure.”
This moment reminded Chris of the power of passion and commitment. It also became a turning point in his self-confidence as an artist.
“I realized that nothing can stand in front of me if it’s something I truly love to do.”
Inspiration From Within
Chris’s motivation comes from something deeply personal, his belief in self transformation.
“I believed I could change something in myself,” he says. “That belief pushed me forward. I’ve achieved many things that I once only dreamed of.”
He didn’t start out with all the answers or a clear path. But Chris took a leap of faith when he chose acting over the comfort of his past life.
“My journey started at university,” he says. “But the scariest challenge was giving up everything I knew to start fresh. That was hard. But it’s the best decision I’ve ever made.”
Summer Break, Fresh Starts, New Ideas
Right now, Chris is enjoying a slower pace and making time for things outside of the stage.
“Let’s not forget, it’s summer!” he says with a smile. “I’m doing the things I love, and maybe I’ll try something completely new, something outside of theatre, movies, or series.”
While he’s not revealing exactly what’s next, Chris hints at a fresh experience that could expand his horizons in unexpected ways.
Staying True, Speaking Real
Chris is open about both the joys and struggles of being an artist. His honesty is what sets him apart.
“Let out everything and say the truth,” he advises. “Even if it doesn’t suit the person in front of you. The truth keeps you grounded.”
He understands that life is full of highs and lows, and that emotional resilience is key.
“Ups and downs are coming your way,” he adds. “Be always ready. And when it feels too much, take a breath.”
His words reflect a grounded, mature perspective, a mindset that many of his followers find inspiring.
Looking Back at What He’s Achieved
For Chris, this moment in his life is a proud checkpoint.
“I’ve achieved things that once felt impossible,” he says. “But I still have so much to do.”
Despite his growth, he stays humble and present.
“Nothing matters more than being happy and satisfied with what you have on your plate right now.”
It’s this attitude that has earned Chris a loyal and growing fan base.
