"August: Osage County" is the Tony Award-winning and Pulitzer Prize-winning story of family secrets old and new. Long-buried resentments are unearthed in the aftermath of an Oklahoma patriarch's disappearance. The caustic, all-too-human members of the Weston clan love one another ferociously, but dislike each other with even greater intensity. Three generations convene under the same roof for what becomes an epic and prolonged meltdown and an unforgettable ride that The New York Times called "fiercely funny and bitingly sad."

Audience discretion is advised, as the play includes mature themes and content.
