Other Desert Cities
Purple Box Theater
1305 West Parkwood Friendswood
Over the course of Christmas Eve, Brooke spars with her parents, reminisces with her charming younger brother Trip, and receives the dubious emotional support of her alcoholic aunt, Silda. When the news of Brooke's memoir is revealed, Polly and Lyman are faced with a choice - either reveal a shocking secret that they have kept for decades, or risk exposure when the world reads their story. Spanning the international disasters of war, the bitter feuds of American politics, and the intricate and equally bitter dynamics of one family's love and grief, Jon Robin Baitz's Other Desert Cities is a scintillating and sharply observed dark comedy, with themes of depression, addiction, family and memory.
