Acclaimed across the country, Heather Raffo’s journey into the lives of nine ordinary Iraqi women is a riveting, explosive mix of docudrama, lyrical language and mesmerizing performance. Raffo plays all nine roles, taking us on a theatrical adventure through desire, loss, and a universal understanding of humanity. Next Theatre Company brings Raffo and the play’s original director to recreate what critics across the country have hailed as one of the most important new plays of the century. Mature audiences only.
"A beautifully shaped one-woman play! It is persuasive precisely because it is beautiful. See it soon… see it tonight!" Wall Street Journal
“Powerful, impassioned, vivid and memorable” New York Times
