Steppenwolf's AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY Opens 9/9 At Center Theatre Group/Ahmanson Theatre
The Steppenwolf Theatre Company's production of "August: Osage County" by Tracy Letts and directed by Anna D. Shapiro opens Wednesday September 9 at 7:30pm.
DESCRIPTION: "August: Osage County," the 2008 Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning play, tells the bitingly funny and sensationally entertaining story of the Westons, a large extended clan that comes together at their rural homestead in Pawhuska, Oklahoma, after the alcoholic patriarch disappears. Forced to confront unspoken truths and astonishing secrets, the family must also contend with Violet, a pill-popping, deeply unsettled woman at the center of the storm.
Academy Award-winner ("Bonnie and Clyde") and four-time Tony Award-nominee Estelle Parsons stars in the role of the family matriarch, Violet. "August: Osage County" is a rare theatrical event: a large-scale work filled with 13 unforgettable characters, a powerful tragicomedy told with unflinching honesty.
