Winner of the 2013 Obie Award for Best New American Play, Julia Jarcho's Grimly Handsome plays out as both a crime drama and a darkly funny fairy tale, complete with wild animals lurking in the urban jungle. In a trio of interrelated segments, you'll be introduced to an intriguing young woman, a pair of distinctly creepy Christmas tree salesmen. a pair of cops after a serial killer and other creatures of the night. Santa Monica's City Garage Theatre stages this West Coast premiere of the New York Times Critics' Pick. The show features brief nudity. Parental discretion is advised.

"...Everyone involved in bringing Grimly Handsome to life at Santa Monica's City Garage has done all the necessary work. Still, the play will feel like a farrago, unless the audience is willing to patiently dig in to sort out the threads."

"...But to call this play a fairy tale isn't quite accurate either: There are odd tangents and unexpected developments that are simultaneously creative, imaginative and impenetrable. You may not know exactly what you're seeing, but it still packs quite a dynamic dramatic charge."
