Other Desert Cities by Jon Robin Baitz
|
For the final show of our Spring 2013 season, MMSC presents Other Desert Cities, a riveting new play by Jon  Robin Baitz, the creator of TV's hit drama "Brothers & Sisters." A family is pushed to the brink in Jon Robin Baitz's scintillating new comedy/drama, dubbed "the best new play on Broadway" by The New York Times. When Brooke Wyeth arrives at her parents' Palm Springs mansion on Christmas Eve with the manuscript of her tell-all memoir in tow she unearths a devastating family secret - throwing her parents into a panic that threatens to rip the clan apart. With biting wit and razor-sharp insight, Other Desert Cities "has the appeal of a Broadway hit from another age" - The New York Times. Featuring MMSC favorites Christine Crawfis, Bruce Pileggi, MaryBeth Boylan, Robert Gagnon and Zsuzsa Manna and directed by MMSC's Producing Director, Robert Miller, Other Desert Cities is a searing comedy with banter that dazzles and decimates, making it one of the most satisfying grown-up plays of the decade. Sponsored by Pileggi Construction and Dragon Fly Moon Meditation. Produced by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service.
