August: Osage County - Philadelphia PA - Play

Direct from Broadway, August: Osage County stars Academy Award-winner Estelle Parsons as Violet Weston, a pill-popping, deeply unsettled woman caught in the grip of addiction. When Violet’s alcoholic husband mysteriously disappears, her extended clan reunites at their rural Oklahoma homestead for a big, juicy family showdown that’s as hilarious as it is shocking. Originally created by the renowned Steppenwolf Theatre Company in Chicago, August, Osage County is a rare theatrical event — a large scale work filled with unforgettable characters, a powerful tale told with unflinching honesty.

The Associated Press calls it “An astonishing creation — riveting, extraordinary, and incredibly funny,” and TIME Magazine named August: Osage County the “#1 Show of the Year!” Winner of the 2008 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the Tony Award for Best Play, August: Osage County is written by Tracy Letts and directed by Anna D. Shapiro.
