directed by Janet Hayatshahi

An Artist. An Exile. An American.
A Doctor. A Girl. A Survivor.
A Mullaya. A Lover. An Old Woman.


What does it mean to be a woman from Iraq?

Inspired and extracted from true events, 9 Parts of Desire is the story of nine Iraqi women living in Baghdad, London and New York who confront the world in both ordinary and surprising ways, revealing conflicting perspectives about an age-old war zone. Running time: approximately 90 minutes, one act.

Join us at the preview performance on October 9, 2009 at 7:30 p.m.

with a post-show discussion on
