The Minutes at The Laboratory Theater of Florida

Southwest Florida Premiere

The Minutes by Tracy Letts opens on April 11.

This scathing new comedy from the author of August: Osage County is about small-town politics and real-world power. It exposes the ugliness behind some of our most closely-held American narratives while asking each of us what we would do to keep from becoming history’s losers.

Prepare to be riveted by "The Minutes," the electrifying new play by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Tracy Letts that has taken Broadway by storm! In this gripping and thought-provoking drama, Letts invites audiences into the heart of a small-town city council meeting, where the seemingly mundane proceedings take a dark and unexpected turn. As tensions simmer and secrets are unearthed, "The Minutes" offers a scathing exploration of power, politics, and the elusive nature of truth.

“You will probably leave at the end with very mixed feelings, but you will talk about it, think about it, and go away with the knowledge that you have never seen anything like it.” – Observer.com
