具体描述
Winner of the 2008 Pulitzer Prize for Drama"A tremendous achievement in American playwriting: a tragicomic populist portrait of a tough land and a tougher people."-"Time Out New York""Tracy Letts' "August: Osage County" is what O'Neill would be writing in 2007. Letts has recaptured the nobility of American drama's mid-century heyday while still creating something entirely original."-"New York" magazineOne of the most bracing and critically acclaimed plays in recent Broadway history, "August: Osage County" is a portrait of the dysfunctional American family at its finest-and absolute worst. When the patriarch of the Weston clan disappears one hot summer night, the family reunites at the Oklahoma homestead, where long-held secrets are unflinchingly and uproariously revealed. The three-act, three-and-a-half-hour mammoth of a play combines epic tragedy with black comedy, dramatizing three generations of unfulfilled dreams and leaving not one of its thirteen characters unscathed. After its sold-out Chicago premiere, the play has electrified audiences in New York since its opening in November 2007.Tracy Letts is the author of "Killer Joe," "Bug," and "Man from Nebraska," which was a finalist for the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. His plays have been performed throughout the country and internationally. A performer as well as a playwright, Letts is a member of the Steppenwolf Theatre Company, where "August: Osage County" premiered.

评分Tracy Letts不仅因此剧本获得了托尼奖，几年后还获了13年托尼奖话剧类的最佳男演员（作品是《灵欲春宵》），真是让我难以置信。电影好看，特地来看剧本，果然剧本更胜一筹。——15.02.10

评分家庭撕逼狗血剧，跟Long Day's Journey into Night差远了。一句台词总结中心思想:We're all just people, some of us accidentally connected by genetics, a random selection of cells. Nothing more. 看到一句话忍不住眼红，大概是最想跟前男友说的吧 die after me, all right? I don't care what else you do, where you go, how you screw up your life, just... survive. Outlive me, please.
评分《八月奥色治郡》是那种典型的精心设计的优秀美国戏剧，在这个热得逼人疯的家里，所有标题党式的情节模块纷至沓来。整出戏充满了punch line，反转式情节安排在最正确的时间，真是一场好戏。家庭的分崩同时暗自对应着美国社会的种种问题，借此本戏有了讽世的意义。问题在于，这种严肃的思想性实在太有设计感，我想这就是为什么本剧的电影版并不成功。
