9 Parts of Desire by Heather Raffo From Apr 18th through May 13th, 20079 Parts of Desire is the play currently on stage at Mosaic Theatre. It is also the result of a work done by Writer Heather Raffo, who spent eleven years conducting dozens of interviews in four continents with Iraqi women. Her resulting “theatrical mosaic” depicts the realities of life in Iraq – both under Saddam Hussein and since his ouster – for several of these unique women whose worlds have been frayed and fractured, sometimes beyond repair, by their country’s history. 9 Parts of Desire is a portrait of the extraordinary lives of a cross section of Iraqi women.
