Players Presents:
Buried Child
By Sam Shepard
Directed
by Bill Doscher
This powerful and brilliant play, winner of the 1979 Pulitzer Prize, probes
deep into the disintegration of the American Dream. Set in a squalid farm
home occupied by a family filled with suppressed violence and unease,
a ranting alcoholic grandfather; a sanctimonious grandmother (who goes
on drinking bouts with the local minister) and their sons harbor a dark
secret. Into their midst comes Vince, a grandson none of them remember,
and his girlfriend, Shelly, who cannot comprehend the madness to which
she is suddenly introduced. "…wildly poetic, full of stage
images and utterances replete with insidious suggestiveness…" —NY
Magazine. "Shepard is one of the most prolific of our playwrights,
and, for that matter, certainly one of the most brilliant." —NY
Post. "Mr. Shepard is an uncommon playwright and uncommonly gifted…" —NY
Times.
