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.

這糟心的一傢人啊……
评分一直覺得作者在寫的時候一直在問自己"如果把某某情況再往前推兩步會導緻什麼結果?”戲劇張力相當棒,每個人的個性都很飽滿。沒啥討喜的不討喜的角色,大傢麵對的問題不一樣而已。
评分東尼獎最佳劇本。美國中西部傢庭故事,女性角色動人。
评分Tracy Letts不僅因此劇本獲得瞭托尼奬,幾年後還獲瞭13年托尼奬話劇類的最佳男演員(作品是《靈欲春宵》),真是讓我難以置信。電影好看,特地來看劇本,果然劇本更勝一籌。——15.02.10
评分適閤X-mas的傢庭大劇
