If your Tuesday-night plan currently consists of “idk yet,” Casablanca has an answer.
Salim Benmoussa brings Deviens to the Studio des Arts Vivants on September 15, with a show built around something that should feel particularly familiar to young Casablancais: figuring out who you’re supposed to become.
Part storytelling, part music and part personal journey, Deviens follows the experiences of a young man growing up in Casablanca through dreams, family, love, memories and all the complicated little moments that shape adulthood.
Rather than treating theatre like something distant or overly serious, Benmoussa uses personal stories and songs to explore questions almost everyone eventually runs into: What do you want? What does your family expect from you? And how exactly are you supposed to know what you’re doing with your life?
The Casablanca setting makes those questions hit even closer to home.
For a younger audience looking for cultural plans beyond the usual dinner-coffee-club rotation, Deviens is also a reminder that the city’s theatre scene deserves a spot on the weekend , or in this case, Tuesday agenda.
Consider tonight’s plans handled, Casa.
