Winner of the 2008 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the 2008 Tony Award for Best New Play.
Now a major motion picture A tremendous achievement in American playwriting: a tragicomic populist portrait of a tough land and a tougher people.
-- TimeOut New York Tracy Letts' August: Osage County is what O'Neill would be writing in 2007.
Letts has recaptured the nobility of American drama's mid-century heyday while still creating something entirely original.
--New York magazine I don't care if August: Osage County is three-and-a-half hours long.
I wanted more.
-Howard Shapiro, Philadelphia Inquirer This original and corrosive black comedy deserves a seat at the table with the great American family plays.
--Time One of the most bracing and critically acclaimed plays in recent history, August: Osage County is a portrait of the dysfunctional American family at its finest--and absolute worst.
When the patriarch of the Weston clan disappears one hot summer night, the family reunites at the Oklahoma homestead, where long-held secrets are unflinchingly and uproariously revealed.
The three-act, three-and-a-half-hour mammoth of a play combines epic tragedy with black comedy, dramatizing three generations of unfulfilled dreams and leaving not one of its thirteen characters unscathed.
August: Osage County has been produced in more than twenty countries worldwide and is now a major motion picture starring Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Chris Cooper, Dermot Mulroney, Sam Shepard, Juliette Lewis, and Ewan McGregor.
Tracy Letts is the author of Killer Joe , Bug , and Man from Nebraska , which was a finalist for the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
His plays have been performed throughout the country and internationally.
A performer as well as a playwright, Letts is a member of the Steppenwolf Theatre Company, where August: Osage County premiered.
