Auditions for 9 Parts coming up

Dreamwell & ICCT - Dreamwell Theatre and Iowa City Community Theatre join forces to produce 9 Parts of Desire, a portrait of the extraordinary (and ordinary) lives of a cross-section of Iraqi women: a sexy painter, a radical Communist, doctors, exiles, wives and lovers.

Heather Raffo's critically-acclaimed work, directed by Rachel Howell, dives into the conflicting aspects of what it means to be a woman in the age-old war zone of Iraq. An unusually timely meditation on the ancient, the modern and the feminine in a country overshadowed by war.

Sunday, June 20, 2010, 4:30-6:30 p.m.
Monday, June 21, 2010, 6:00-9:00 p.m.
Iowa City Public Library, Meeting Room A

Actors Needed: 5-9 women, various ages, ethnicities.

What to prepare: Sides will be provided at the auditions. A full script is available for check out at the Reserve Desk at the Iowa City Public Library.
