 "9 Parts of Desire," starring Luisa Sermol and directed by Louanne Moldovan, is a portrait of the extraordinary (and ordinary) lives of a whole cross-section of Iraqi women: a sexy painter, a radical communist, doctors, exiles, wives and lovers. This work delves into the many conflicting aspects of what it means to be a woman in the age-old war zone in Iraq. =0D=0A=

 "When I was in the Saddam Art Center in Baghdad, I saw a haunting painting of a nude woman clinging to a barren tree. I came back to America and over the last ten years have been digesting this painting and what it must mean to be an Iraqi woman now," said Raffo. =0D=0A=

 In "9 Parts of Desire," Raffo weaves a tapestry of love, longing, sorrow and wit, illustrating the complex and harrowing reality of living in modern Iraq.=0D=0A=

 This is an unusually timely meditation on the ancient, the modern and the feminine in a country overshadowed by war. Note: This play is appropriate for ages 14 and up. Parking is available in the Blue Lot for $3.=0D=0A=
