August: Osage County

Following a sudden family crisis, the fiercely dysfunctional Weston family reunites at their Oklahoma home. As old wounds reopen and long-buried secrets come to light, simmering resentments erupt in an unfiltered portrait of family life — by turns darkly funny and deeply moving.

Winner of the 2008 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the Tony Award for Best Play, August: Osage County is written by Tracy Letts and directed by Jeremy Herrin, whose credits include People, Places and Things and Wolf Hall. The production stars two-time Olivier Award winner and 2026 Tony Award winner Lesley Manville as Violet Weston, with two-time BAFTA Award winner Anna Maxwell Martin as Barbara Fordham. Returning to London for the first time in almost 20 years, this modern classic brings blistering dialogue and explosive family truths to the Noël Coward Theatre in its first major West End revival.
