A sort of mix of sci-fi and burlesque, The Last Days of Desmond Nani Reese is a unique and exciting story. In 2014, an “ethno-femino-dance anthropologist” travels to the post apocalyptic city of L.A. to complete her dissertation on “The History of the World, as Told by Loose Women.” Her last subject is Desmond “Nani” Reese, a once famous stripper who is now a 108 year-old crazy cat lady. Written and performed by Heather Woodbury, Last Days is an entertaining look at outlaw women over the ages. Through poster and flyer distribution, direction is promoting this one-night-only event that you won’t want to miss.
The Last Days of Desmond Reese is at Steppenwolf Theatre’s Downstairs Theatre on March 3rd.
