It’s time for Zahra and her boyfriend Duncan to move in together. All Zahra needs to do is let her immigrant, Iranian, Muslim parents know that her Southern Californian, white, atheist,

non-believing, infidel boyfriend -- who she has no intention of marrying anytime soon -- should move in with her. In the process, she doesn't want to get disowned... or forced into an arranged marriage... or end up stoned in a ditch in her parent's backyard. Indeed, it’s just your average, everyday story of Boy meets Girl, meets thousands of years of cultural tradition and religious doctrine. WARNING: The first 3 rows may be converted to Islam.

ZAHRA NOORBAKHSH is a writer, actor, solo-performer and stand-up comedian, whose one-woman show All Atheists Are Muslim is grabbing the attention of audiences, making light of Islamophobia with the subtitle, warning: “You may be more Muslim than you think.” The title suggests that if Atheist and Muslim ideologies can find common ground than those of us in between can as well. All Atheists Are Muslim premiered in San Francisco’s Stage Werx Theatre in Nov. 2010 and, sold-out every performance since its debut.
