Desperate Affection

Home

a dark comedy by Bruce Graham          

produced & directed by Andrey Esterlis

"Unlikely love story with an astounding deadly twist" Bridge View

“DESPERATE AFFECTION is a comic look at how ridiculously extreme people can be and how much they will sacrifice for the chance at true love.” – Variety

“I can convey no finer praise than that this bouncing babe of a second act…is a truly honest ending…Take my word for it: you will walk out of the theater slightly dazed by the outcome…The boy-girl comedy has become a bona-fide thriller.”Philadelphia Daily News

“DESPERATE AFFECTION…is one of the sharpest, funniest, most deliciously perverse new plays I’ve seen in a long time…Graham has fashioned a comic gem…the overall experience as satisfying as any play anywhere in the past few years.” – Twin Cities Reader
