Paula Vogel’s The Long Christmas Ride Home receives its New York premiere under the direction of Mark Brokaw, reuniting Vogel and Brokaw for the first time since the 1998 Pulitzer Prize-winning play How I Learned to Drive debuted at the Vineyard.
The play – which also features puppets designed by Basil Twist – concerns what happens when a suburban family’s car spins out of control after a disastrous Christmas dinner, hurtling the three siblings into the future where they confront the legacies of their childhood.
