August Osage County on Broadway

Now playing on Broadway at the Imperial theatre.

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 Broadway play that unflinchingly -- and uproariously -- exposes the dark side of the Midwestern American family.

Fresh from a thrilling, sold-out run at Chicago's Tony Award-Winning Steppenwolf Theatre, August: Osage County had audiences riveted and critics raving. This thrilling new play by Pulitzer Prize finalist Tracy Letts (Bug, Killer Joe) has been hailed by The New York Times as "hugely entertaining! A ripsnorter full of blistering, funny dialogue, acid-etched characters and scenes of no-holds-barred emotional combat."

After seeing this play, I had to walk around Times Square for about an hour just to recover. I was stunned, and I mean stunned in the best way possible.  The most incredible play I have ever seen. It knocked the breath out of me.

That's insane! I just looked it up.  I'm a costume design freshman and I'm planning on trying to create Bug for my thesis. Insane!

[GirEatsChewyMeatPies]

My family is really good friends with Tracy Letts. Look for Marc Nelson in the current touring production! He's my uncle!
