Other Desert Cities

MUST END FEBRUARY 15, 2014

Here’s what the audiences and critics are saying about “Other Desert Cities”:

“An amazing, compelling night of theater. Incredible.”

“Absolutely riveting.”

“Funny, heart-wrenching and hopeful.”  “Tour de force performances.

“A must-see production.”

MUST END FEBRUARY 15, 2014. ALL PERFORMANCES BEGIN AT 8 PM

A Pulitzer Prize finalist, nominated for 5 Tony Awards.

Winner of the Drama Award for Best Play

One of the most celebrated plays in recent Broadway history.

Brooke Wyeth returns to her family home for the holidays. Her father is a former movie star, who has become a stalwart in the GOP. Her mother is a powerful and acerbic political dynamo. When Brooke announces her plans to publish a tell-all memoir about a crucial family event, the fireworks begin in this politically-divided clan. Playwright Jon Robin Baitz (TV’s “Brothers and Sisters”) beautifully balances spikey comedy with riveting family drama in this recent Broadway hit. The New York Times called it “One of the best new plays of the decade.”
