"Other Desert Cities" Opens Tonight at Engeman Theater

The show will run from Jan. 23 through March 9.

The John W. Engeman Theater will premiere "Other Desert Cities" Thursday, a new Broadway drama from the creator of TV's Brothers & Sisters and was a finalist for the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. 

Other Desert Cities is the story of a once promising novelist, who returns home after a six year absence to celebrate Christmas in Palm Springs with her parents, former leading Republicans, and her eccentric liberal aunt. When the novelist announces she is about to publish a memoir focusing on an explosive chapter in the family's history, the holiday reunion is thrown into turmoil as the family struggles to come to terms with their past. In this family, secrets are everything.

The show will run from Jan. 23 through March 9.

Tickets can be purchased by calling the box office at (631) 261-2900 or online at http://engemantheater.com/.
