“Other Desert Cities”: Rave Reviews
To all my friends whom I told weeks ago to get tickets for “Other Desert Cities” and who may now be having trouble scoring seats, I say: Too bad! This Jon Robin Baitz play, which I’ve been blogging during previews for Lincoln Center Theater, has just opened to rave reviews and now it’s the hottest theatre ticket in town. (Among new plays, that is. New musicals, like that arachnid one that has delayed its opening yet again, are another matter.) The New York Times raved: “Other Desert Cities” is “the most richly enjoyable new play for grown-ups that New York has known in many a season.”
