One of the monumental plays of the 21st century, winner of the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award for Best New Play.

Pawhuska, Oklahoma, 2007. In the scorching heat of summer, the Weston family has come together following the disappearance of their alcoholic patriarch, Beverly, a world-class poet.

While his wife, Violet, spirals into opiate addiction, the three daughters dutifully return to their childhood home with their spouses, children and unfinished business trailing behind. For the first time in years, the family is together… almost.

As the temperature soars, so do the familial tensions, boiling over in vicious point-scoring and score-settling to sensationally entertaining effect.

This darkly comedic study of a family in meltdown is an unflinchingly honest and captivating look at addiction, personal failure, and the complex relationships we have with those closest to us. AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY is a brilliant example of the best of contemporary American drama, and a theatrical juggernaut of epic proportions.
