One of the most dramatic and critically acclaimed plays on Broadway in 2007, and a vital portrait of the good and worst sides of a dysfunctional American family. When the Weston’s patriarch passes away on a warm summer night, the family gathers at the family home in Oklahoma, where hidden truths horrendously and hilariously emerge. The play mixes the epic tragedy with absurd comedy and introduces the unfulfilled dreams of three generations. None of the thirteen characters are left unharmed. Letts won the Pulitzer Prize in 2008 as well as five Tony Awards for the play. “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.
