About

Brooke Wyeth hasn't been home to visit her parents in years. But now she's back in Palm Springs for Christmas, and she has a startling announcement to make. Brooke is about to publish a detailed and intimate family memoir-one that will open a wound her politically prominent parents don't want reopened.

Reviews

"The most richly enjoyable new play for grown-ups that New York has known in many seasons. . . In his most fully realized play to date, Mr. Baitz makes sure our sympathies keep shifting among the members of the wounded family portrayed here. Every one of them emerges as selfish, loving, cruel, compassionate, irritating, charming and just possibly heroic. . . Leaves you feeling both moved and grati
Ben Brantley, The New York Times
"An uncommonly democratic play. All five characters have surprising layers . . . with humor, sensitivity and invigorating anger."
David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter
"Other Desert Cities is a winner . . . Funny and fierce, invigorating and intelligent."
Joe Dziemianowicz, Daily News (New York)
