August: Osage County
officially opened on Tuesday, December 4 at Imperial Theatre (249 W. 45th St).
Steppenwolf Theatre extended the play's run by three weeks to help
recover lost dates from the
strike. The added performances will
extend August's Broadway run through
March 9, 2008.
The highly-anticipated new American play by Pulitzer Prize
finalist and Steppenwolf ensemble member Tracy Letts (Bug, Killer Joe) is
making its Broadway premiere direct from Steppenwolf's sold-out engagement in
Chicago.
"When their patriarch vanishes, the Weston clan must
return to their three-story home in rural Oklahoma to get to the heart of the matter.
With rich insight and brilliant humor, Letts paints a vivid portrait of a
Midwestern family at a turning point," state press notes.
Anna D. Shapiro directs the ensemble from Steppenwolf, who reprise their roles for
the Broadway run: Ian Barford, Deanna Dunagan, Kimberly Guerrero, Francis
Guinan, Dennis Letts, Mariann Mayberry, Amy Morton, Sally Murphy, Jeff Perry,
Rondi Reed and Troy West. Brian Kerwin joins the cast in New York.
The performance schedule is as follows: Tuesdays – Fridays
at 7:30PM, Saturdays at 8PM, Wednesdays & Saturdays at 2PM and Sundays at
3PM.
Tickets are priced at $26.50-$99.50 and are available at www.Telecharge.com or (212)
