Adler and Gibb at Kirk Douglas Theatre

This multilayered satire focuses on an actress determined to dig up the truth behind the sketchy disappearance of a celebrated 20th-century American artist, Janet Adler, who rejected life in the public eye and escaped to a house in the woods with her lover Margaret Gibb, only to die several years later under mysterious circumstances. Award-winning playwright Tim Crouch wrote, co-directs and co-stars in the U.S. premiere of Adler & Gibb at Culver City's Kirk Douglas Theatre, a co-commission by the Center Theatre Group with London's Royal Court Theatre that Time Out London calls an "hilarious, harrowing and maddening interrogation of the value of art." This performance is recommended for ages 16+ for mature language, graphic imagery and adult subject matter. There's no intermission.
