OTHER DESERT CITIES
George P. Maffei, II Theatre
Wilkes-Barre, PA
Compartir este evento




"Other Desert Cities" a searing comedy in which Brooke Wyeth, a once promising novelist, returns home after a six year absence to celebrate Christmas in Palm Springs with her parents, former members of the Reagan inner-circle, her brother and her aunt. When Brooke announces that she is about to publish a memoir focusing on an explosive chapter in the family's history, the holiday reunion is thrown into turmoil and the Wyeths are both bound together and torn apart as they struggle to come to terms with their past.

Brooke has come home to draw a line in the sand and is daring her family to cross it. Her brother won't play her game; her aunt knows way too much, and her parents fall into all their old routines as they plead with her to keep their story quiet. In this family, secrets are currency and everyone is rich.

In simplest terms, the play is about a girl who comes home to the desert with a story about where she is from, who her people really are, what she thinks they really are. Her parents represent an Establishment that she feels has betrayed this country. She goes to war with them, and blood is spilled. Like most of Baitz's work, "Other Desert Cities" certainly includes crackling discourse about politics and plenty of humor. But it is primarily about a family. "The structure of the family," Baitz said, "is the permanent blank slate onto which I can project a large number of scenarios of what it is to be an American.
