This darkly comic drama explores the unspoken secrets that haunt the Westons, a dysfunctional extended family in rural Oklahoma. Following the disappearance of their alcoholic patriarch, the clan gathers at the farmhouse to rehash family feuds, confront long-suppressed demons and contend with the vitriolic, pill-popping grandmother at the center of the storm. "This turbo-charged tragicomedy is the most exciting new American play Broadway has seen in years," exclaimed The New York Times in just one of countless rave reviews for this heartbreaking masterpiece. Mature audiences only.
