After a six-year absence, Brooke Wyeth returns to her family’s upscale Palm Springs home and life to celebrate the holidays and brings with her more than just tidings of good cheer. Armed with a tell-all memoir that resurrects a tragic event from the family’s past, Brooke draws a line in the sand, daring her parents, brother, and aunt to cross it and confront their buried secrets. As the family unravels in the face of this explosive revelation, tensions soar, and loyalties are tested. With biting wit and razor-sharp insight, Other Desert Cities promises a riveting exploration of family dynamics that will leave you on the edge of your seat.
Show dates November 7 - 23, with rehearsals beginning September 22. Directed by guest director Tracy Arnold.
