It's Los Angeles circa 2014, and a 108-year-old Echo Park stripper has a lot to get off her chest. Heather Woodbury's latest one-woman show, The Last Days of Desmond Nani Reese, is set in a futuristic, environmentally decimated LA — but don't expect any Terminator-like sequences. The play is mostly about two Woodbury-played characters: the aforementioned centenarian stripper, Desmond Nani Reese (inspired by Echo Park's legendary Lemoyne Redmond), and the mouthy Harvard feminist interviewing her for a dissertation entitled "The History of the World, as Told by Loose Women."
