August: Osage County by Tracy Letts

A hugely-acclaimed black comedy exposing the dark side of the Midwestern American family.

'One of the truly great nights of American theatre'

* Independent *

'Something special.. a dramatic tour de force, first smouldering and then blazing with acrimony, appalling behaviour and vicious home truths'

* Telegraph *

'Fully deserves to join the roll call of classic American plays'

* Independent on Sunday *

'A triumph'

* Sunday Times *

'Sensationally entertaining...Tracy Letts' fiercely funny, turbo-charged tragicomedy is, flat-out, no asterisks and without qualifications, the most exciting new American play Broadway has seen in years'

* New York Times *
