The Pulitzer Prize-winning play is now a major motion picture.
This scathing new comedy about small-town politics and real-world power, from the author of August: Osage County, 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. "Certain to be the single work of art that best represents, but will also survive, the Trump era." - Variety "Explosive... Deftly captures the tension of patriotic grandiosity and provincial defensiveness found in city halls across the land." - Chicago Tribune "Astonishing... a pitch-black comedy about the current state of American politics." - Chicago Sun-Times

With a deftly crafted blend of humor and humanity, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Tracy Letts demonstrates the ultimate midlife crisis: the bewildering search for self-discovery once you've already grown up.
