You will feel right at home at OTHER DESERT CITIES, which welcomes Trinity Smith Keel (JEEVES IN BLOOM/ 2000 MILES, NC Stage, She is also a Montford Park Players regular.) as Brooke Wyeth. Brooke is visiting her parents after a six- year absence and bears an unpleasant surprise for her family. Callan White (SOUVENIR/JEEVES IN BLOOM/ANNAPURNA/VIRGINIA WOOLF etc., NC Stage) will be portraying Brooke’s brittle and perfectionist mother Polly Wyeth. Kelley Hinman (IN THE NEXT ROOM, NC Stage) is starring as her loving father Lyman Wyeth who is desperately trying to keep the peace in this family no matter the cost. Over the course of Christmas Eve, Brooke spars and reminisces with her charming brother Trip Wyeth, played by Scott Keel ( TROILUS AND CRESSIDA, Montford Park Players) and receives the dubious emotional support of her alcoholic aunt, Silda performed by Ellen Sandweiss (THE EVIL DEAD,Renaissance Pictures). When the news of Brooke’s memoir is revealed, Polly and Lyman are faced with a choice — either reveal a shocking secret that they have kept for decades, or risk exposure when the world reads their story.
