Marathon of Tracy Letts Plays Will Take Place at Circle in the Square

Twelve Hours With Tracy Letts, a marathon theater reading festival celebrating the works of the Pulitzer Prize winner, will take place on Monday, February 23, 11am-11pm, at Circle in the Square Theatre.

This year’s festival will include the following Letts plays: August: Osage County, Killer Joe, Linda Vista, The Minutes, and Man from Nebraska.

Letts’s play Bug, not included in the festival, is currently playing on Broadway at the Samuel J. Friedman Theater.

Performers for this year’s festival include Silvia Dionicio, Gina Gershon, Jonathan Judge-Russo, Tony winner Katrina Lenk, Matthew Lillard, Hamish Linklater, Tony winner Jak Malone, Margo Martindale, Lily Rabe, Andrew Rothenberg, Thomas Sadoski, and Jeff Still. More performers will be announced in the coming weeks. Casting is subject to change.
