This American classic explores alternatives that might spring from the demented terrain of the California landscape. Sons of a desert-dwelling alcoholic and a suburban wanderer clash over a film script. Austin, the achiever, is working on a script he has sold to producer Sal Kimmer when Lee, a demented petty thief, drops in. He pitches his own idea for a movie to Kimmer, who then wants Austin to junk his bleak, modern love story and write Lee’s trashy Western tale.

Run time:  2 hours, including a 15 minute intermission

Content Warning:  Strong language, violence, and alcohol use. Best enjoyed by ages 14 and up.

Audio Described performance:  Sunday, May 7 at 2pm
