About the Play...

August: Osage County, recipient of the 2008 Pulitzer Price for Drama and the Tony award for Best Play written by Tracy Letts is a doozie, a rollicking roller-coaster of a look inside the lives of the Weston family in Oklahoma.

We all have secrets, but with the Westons, it’s one after another after another, and they all come to light in spectacular fashion after the disappearance of the family patriarch, Beverly.

In 2009, Entertainment Weekly put it on its end-of-the-decade, "best of list:”  See the play before the film adaptation produced by George Clooney and others with an ensemble cast including Merryl Streep and Julia Roberts hits the theaters in November of 2013.
The best new American play Broadway has seen in years.
