After its acclaimed, Olivier Award-nominated run in the West End, Jez Butterworth’s The Hills of California is now open on Broadway. Laura Donnelly, Leanne Best, Ophelia Lovibond and Helena Wilson star as four formerly inseparable sisters—their younger selves are played by Nancy Allsop, Sophia Ally, Lara McDonnell and Nicola Turner—haunted by complicated feelings and family history. Sam Mendes directs.
