WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Circle in the Square Theatre presents Sam Shepard's renowned play True West. The story of two brothers' rivalry is given expert treatment by Matthew Warchus (Art), who directs this intense and moving production. Actors Josh Brolin and Elias Koteas play Austin and Lee, replacing Philip Seymour Hoffman and John C. Reilly, who originated those parts in this production. Like Hoffman and Reilly, their replacements are switching roles every three performances.
