How did the two of them end up in the desert in the first place? Gary Lamb directs Peter Bonoff and David Purdham.
Robert Nersesian is the playwright. The Washington, D.C.-based writer is the recipient of an M.F.A. in Drama from Yale. He is the former Managing Director of The Youth Theatre of New Jersey.
