SUMMARY:Des Moines
DESCRIPTION:\n\nTime: 2:00 PM\n\nTickets: Purchase tickets here.\n\nBy Deni
 s Johnson\nDirected by Arin Arbus\n\nNew York Premiere\n\nIn association w
 ith Elizabeth Cuthrell\, David Urrutia\, and Evenstar Films\n\nIn a seedy 
 apartment on the edge of Des Moines\, an unlikely assortment of people com
 e together for an impromptu party that takes them\, by the evening’s end
 \, on a dam bursting ride down a stream-of-consciousness deluge. Downing d
 epth chargers and singing karaoke\, they struggle with the strange and unh
 oly trinity of life\, death\, and sex in this work filled with dark humor 
 and mystery. “What I write about\,” Johnson observed\, “Is the dilem
 ma of living in a fallen world and asking why it is like this if there’s
  supposed to be a God.”\n\nMichiko Kakutani in her 2017 Appraisal of Den
 is Johnson in The New York Times observed\, “He used his startling gift 
 for language to create word pictures as detailed and visionary\, and as va
 ried\, as paintings by Edward Hopper and Hieronymus Bosch\, capturing the 
 lives of outsiders — the lost\, the dispossessed\, the damned — with e
 mpathy and unsparing candor…There is a fierce\, ecstatic quality to Mr. 
 Johnson’s strongest work that lends his characters and their stories an 
 epic\, almost mythic dimension\, in the best American tradition of Melvill
 e and Whitman.”\n\nCAST: Johanna Day\, Arliss Howard\, Hari Nef\, Micha
 el Shannon\, Heather Alicia Simms
