"Things keep happening while you're upstairs, ya know.
The world doesn't stop just because you're upstairs."


This Pulitzer Prize-winning drama marks the first time that we will present a play by Sam Shepard who sadly passed away last year.

A stunning allegory about America, Buried Child is a darkly funny and disturbing depiction of the American dream gone wrong. In homage to this groundbreaking playwright, we are thrilled to bring this modern American classic to life.
