I HEART MAROC Written and Performed by Azo Safo Developed with and Directed by Jessica Lynn JohnsonIn the World Premiere I Heart Maroc Azo Safo introduces us to the lives of rural Moroccans who she worked with as a twenty-four-year-old Peace Corps volunteer during the height of the Bush Administrations war on Iraq. On the quest to find her lifes purpose with the wide-eyed, innocent hope of changing the world, she is thrust into a culture she has to figure out using her Armenian-American immigrant sensibilities. Beginning with learning the Berber language that she is told she is too Kesoula to learn she must navigate anti-American sentiment and win over ALL the villagers while nurturing a budding romance with her Moroccan true love, Mohammed. Will she get through her two-year service in one piece, or will she obey her Armenian immigrant mothers wishes and move back to Glendale to marry an Armenian dentist?
