International City Theatre at the Long Beach Performing Arts Center (Long Beach, CA)
Winner of six 2010 Tony Awards including Best Play, Red by Oscar-nominated writer John Logan (Hugo, Gladiator, The Aviator) took Broadway by storm with its provocative portrait of real-life artist Mark Rothko’s ambition and vulnerability. Having just landed the biggest commission in modern art history, 20th-century abstract expressionist Rothko begins the project, aided by his brash young assistant, Ken, who questions his mentor’s vision — and his motives. Set amid the swiftly changing cultural tide of the early 1960s, Red is a startling snapshot of a brilliant artist at the height of his fame. Caryn Desai directs for International City Theatre.
