August: Osage County is one of the most bracing and critically acclaimed plays in recent history. It offers 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. Here, long-held secrets are unflinchingly and uproariously revealed.

This 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.
