What’s a little sex and gun play among family? Throw in a charmingly calculated and maniacal young woman who thinks she’s Jackie Kennedy and you’ve got Wendy Macleod’s cult classic, The House of Yes.
The story is fairly simple: Jackie loved Marty; Marty left Jackie; Jackie shot Marty. Oh… and Jackie and Marty are twins. Fast forward one year – Marty is bringing home his new fiancée to meet the family on Thanksgiving. There’s aristocratic, faux-French Mom; forgotten brother Anthony; and of course, Jackie. What follows is equal parts hilarity and horror, as the family slowly but surely unravels to reveal its darkest secrets.
A satire of American class, society, family and love, The House of Yes is a perpetual audience favorite for its incredible power to delight and disturb. Lauren Reinhard directs.
