A bitter delight for London theatregoers over the festive period is this eight-week run at the National for Tracy Letts' new domestic comedy, winner of both the 2008 Tony Award and the Pulitzer Prize for Best Play. August: Osage County is a work of barbed comic genius that has been packing them in on Broadway for the last half a year.
When their father disappears in mysterious circumstances, the Weston clan come together for the first time in decades at the old family homestead in Oklahoma. Almost immediately, repressed truths and secrets bubble to the surface, exposing the dark heart of a mid-western family at once typical and very, very strange.
