The internationally renowned Steppenwolf Company, last seen at the National Theatre with The Grapes of Wrath, returns to London with the UK premiere of Tracy Letts multi award winning play, August Osage County
When the large Weston family unexpectedly reunites in Oklahoma, after their father disappears, their home explodes in a maelstrom of repressed truths and unsettling secrets.This new play unflinchingly - and uproariously - exposes the dark side of the Midwestern American family.
The play won the 2008 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and Tony Award for Best Play as well as Drama Desk Award, New York Drama Critics' Circle Award and Outer Critics Circle Award.
