📍 Theatre: Palm Springs Cultural Center
Writer Stan Zimmerman, known for his work on The Golden Girls and Gilmore Girls, is directing two of his original plays in Palm Springs. Knife to the Heart will conclude Desert Ensemble Theatre’s run, while Silver Foxes will make its West Coast premiere.
The dialogue is so snappy and funny that I had the feeling the director could have distributed scripts and allowed the actors to take it from there. Wonderful performances. A must-see.
Desert Ensemble Theatre will close its 15-year run with Knife to the Heart in Palm Springs. The comedy by Stan Zimmerman and Christian McLaughlin will run in April. The production will be staged at the Palm Springs Cultural Center.
Desert Ensemble Theatre’s (DET’s) world premiere production of DISPERSION OF LIGHT, a historical drama by Richard Rubin, is, as usual, brilliantly directed and acted and technically superb. Mr. Rubin has written a dark psychological study that requires a great deal of thought on the audience’s part. The production is a must-see.
Desert Ensemble Theatre’s (DET’s) first offering for 2025-26, THE ROOMMATE, a one-act two-person dramedy written by Jen Silverman, is, as is common for DET, brilliantly directed and brilliantly acted. This season will be its last, and it is clear that DET intends to go out with a bang.
