Overview

Sam Shepard’s fiercely funny, OBIE award-winning play returns to the stage.  With their family home on the verge of collapse and the creditors closing in, the Tate family white knuckles to their past, while scratching and clawing their way towards a better future.

Told through a contemporary biting lens, this classic story dismantles the American dream in its look at a family fighting to stay alive.
