"Other Desert Cities"
by Jon Robin Baitz
Directed by Peter Gelblum

"Other Desert Cities" won the 2011 Outer Critics Circle Award for Best New Off-Broadway Play, was nominated for five 2012 Tony Awards, including Best Play, and was a finalist for the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.

The performance contains adult language and subject matter that may not be suitable for young children.

OTHER DESERT CITIES tells a smart, funny, and emotionally powerful story about a family confronting a tragic episode from their past. When daughter and author Brooke returns to her parents' Palm Springs home for Christmas, for the first time in six years, she brings along the memoir she is ready to publish about the long-ago and never-discussed suicide of her older brother. Along with unexpected humor, the ensuing tumult raises profound questions about our obligations to our family and to the truth, and what happens when those obligations conflict.

"The play by Jon Robin Baitz is a brilliantly written, witty, and sometimes gut-wrenching play about massive family dysfunction."--BROADWAY WORLD-Eric Pugh
