WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Trip Cullman directs the West Coast premiere of Unusual Acts of Devotion, by Terrence McNally.
During a sweltering summer night, with the sweep of their beloved city surrounding them, Leo and Nadine's neighbors help them celebrate their fifth anniversary on their Greenwich Village rooftop. As danger lurks in the air, each confronts unfulfilled desires and secret longings for each other.
