Other Desert Cities

Synopsis

Every family has a secret. Not every family survives it.

A once-in-a-generation cast arrives on Broadway this fall. Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Ed Harris, Allison Janney, Joe Keery, and Lily Rabe star in the revival of Jon Robin Baitz’s incendiary, Tony Award®-winning Other Desert Cities, directed by John Benjamin Hickey.

On Christmas Eve, the sunlit Palm Springs home of a politically connected family becomes a battleground of memory, loyalty, and legacy when a daughter returns with a memoir and the power to expose the explosive truth they’ve kept hidden. With cutting insight and razor-sharp wit, they excavate old wounds and long-buried secrets. As the past comes into focus, the question isn’t just what happened, but who owns a family’s story and what is the cost to tell it.
