Letts has recaptured the nobility of American drama’s mid-century heyday while still creating something entirely original.”—New York magazineOne of the most bracing and critically acclaimed plays in recent Broadway history, August: Osage County is a portrait of the dysfunctional American family at its finest—and absolute worst.
