In Rehearsal with the All-Star Cast of Jon Robin Baitz's Other Desert Cities

For passionate playgoers, there could be no better holiday gift than Other Desert Cities, a brand new script from Jon Robin Baitz that's being produced at Lincoln Center Theater’s Mitzi Newhouse Theater beginning December 16. Baitz has been away from the New York stage for five loonng years, and his return attracted the dream cast of Stockard Channing, Stacy Keach, Linda Lavin, Elizabeth Marvel and Thomas Sadoski, under the direction of Joe Mantello. Broadway.com photographer Jenny Anderson was invited into the rehearsal room to watch the company at work on a pivotal scene in this family drama, which centers on the turmoil caused when Marvel’s character writes a memoir about her prominent relatives.
