SeasonAugust: Osage CountyBy Tracy Letts Winner of the 2008 Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award A vanished father. A pill-popping mother. Three sisters harboring shady little secrets. When the large Weston family unexpectedly reunites after Dad disappears, their Oklahoman family homestead explodes in a maelstrom of repressed truths and unsettling secrets. Mix in Violet, the drugged-up, scathingly acidic matriarch, and you’ve got a major new play that unflinchingly—and uproariously—exposes the dark side of the Midwestern American family. “Fiercely funny and bitingly sad…[a] turbo-charged tragicomedy…” —NY Times. “This is a play that will leave us laughing and wondering, shuddering and smiling, long after the house lights come back on.” —NY Newsday. August: Osage County will be presented Nov. 1, 2, 7, 8, 9 at 8 p.m., and Nov. 3, 9, and 10 at 2 p.m. Tickets are on sale $22 for adults, $20 for students/seniors. Seating is general admission.
