If you haven’t watched Netflix’s latest Arabic limited series, AlRawabi School for Girls, then block out your day tomorrow and put an out of office – you’re about to get busy. It’s only been a couple of weeks since this new 6-episode series made it onto our screens, and we haven’t been able to shut up about it since. Tima Shomali, you’re a genius. 

AlRawabi School for Girls follows the lives (and drama,) of two female friendship groups who don’t get along with each other. The show looks at bullying, mental health, religion, and sexism in the Arab world. And even if you’ve made up your mind about characters by the second episode, you’ll find that they’re *much* more than meets the eye. 

Obvs once we binge-watched AlRawabi, we did a deep stalk on all the main actresses, because why not? 

After all, most of them are first-timers when it comes to acting, and they’ve done such an impeccable job that we *have* to stan them. Scroll down to check out where these girls are now, and what they’re up to. Maybe a season two is in the works? *wide-eye emoji*.

Andria Tayeh 

AKA, ‘Mariam’

Living between Jordan and Lebanon, Andria is a first-timer breaking onto the acting scene. This beauty has just turned 20, and guess what – she’s a BTS fan!!

Yara Al Mustafa

AKA, ‘Dina’

Between Saudi, Kuwait and Jordan, this Jordanian actress has ~basically~ lived all around the MENA region. The 19-year-old has always dreamed of becoming an actress, and from what we can see on her IG, her music taste SLAPS.

Rakeen Saad

AKA ‘Nouf’

Believe it or not, this Jordanian actress was born in ’89 (send over your skincare routine please.) Rakeen has been in the film industry for some time now, featuring in works like ‘3000 nights‘ by Mai Masri, and another series ‘Sunset Oasis.’

Salsabiela

AKA ‘Ruqayya’

This first-timer actress has been interested in the limelight for a while now. You can tell from her socials that she’s loved theatre since she was young, she’s also visited California many a time. Well who needs Hollywood now, this gal’s made it onto the big screen!

Joanna Arida

AKA ‘Rania’

Joanna is deffo a woman of many talents. She sings, she draws, she models, and she’s *still* in university. This Jordanian actress is currently finishing her Bachelor’s Degree in Architecture at the German Jordanian University, and although she’s been pursuing modeling since she was young, acting may be her official calling. Oh, and Hindash did her makeup not too long ago. Cajj.

Noor Taher

AKA ‘Layan’

Fun fact: this Jordanian actress is actually a ballerina as well. How multi-faceted can these girls get?? Similar to Rakeen, Noor has dabbled in the film industry before, what with being featured in films such as ‘Infidel‘ and ‘The Stoning of Soraya M.’Â
