The Sherman Playhouse will be performing Other Desert Cities by Jon Robin Baitzstarting July 6. The plot revolves around a daughter that returns home for Christmas for the first time in years, bearing the manuscript of a memoir, which reveals a devastating episode in the life of her wealthy Republican family. The events, years in the past, emotionally ravaged the daughter; disturbed the upbringing of the younger son, a child when the events happened; opened a schism between the mother and her sister; and shattered the orderly lives of the parents, causing their ostracism from an intimate circle of friends, which included President and Mrs. Reagan. The play is powerful, passionate and superbly crafted.
