His account of a family whose secrets and lies come spilling forth under duress ranks with the best American drama of the past decade.” —Elysa Gardner, USA Today “A tremendous achievement in American playwriting: a tragicomic populist portrait of a tough land and a tougher people.” —David Cote, TimeOut New York NEW YORK, March 2008—Theatre Communications Group (TCG) is pleased to announce the publication of August: Osage County by Tracy Letts. Originally presented in a sold-out run at Chicago’s Steppenwolf Theatre Company, where Letts is a member, the drama is currently playing in New York at the Imperial Theatre, where it is one of the most bracing and critically acclaimed plays in recent Broadway history.

  • Stage Notes January 2020
    “The American Dream is like a Donut” The American Dream - A huge question in it’s statement; what is it, how do we attain it, and does it differ from person to person in our country; one wouldn’t think these questions would be answered in an early 2000’s donut shop in Chicago with comedy, levity, and fun...and yet here is Tracy Letts’ wonderfully honest and hopeful comedy Superior Donuts. In this play we follow the slowly intertwining stories of Arthur and Franco as two men from different races, backgrounds, ages, and walks of life find ways to support and inspire in the most unsuspecting ways. When you first read the play, it doesn’t read like a comedy, though I would argue most true comedies don’t. It’s very easy for a play to make us laugh, feel entertained, and walk away happy...it’s a much more beautiful act of theatre to inspire these feelings with layers of truth that can make us find honesty and truth in these lovable characters. When you start working on a play, you have to prepare the dough of the show, the text and words and base... the ingredients that were given to you by the playwright. This text is rich with humor, honesty, human connection, and stories that make us take pause and look lives and livelihoods we may not normally see or think about when walking down the streets of our own home. From the rich story given to us, a talented team or artisans comes together to anoint each individually tasty piece of this story with decoration, humor, color, and vibrances to create a story that makes us think with a warm smile across our face.

  • Superior Donuts – a Recipe for Success by Kate Lyman Making a Donut Is Relatively Easy
    OCTOBER 2017 Superior Donuts – A Recipe for Success by Kate Lyman Making a donut is relatively easy. All you need are a few simple ingredients and some oil to fry them in. However, as we all know, creating a successful sitcom is significantly more difficult. Yet, that’s exactly what Executive Producers Bob Daily, Garrett Donovan, Neil Goldman and the entire Superior Donuts team have managed to do as the show heads into its second season. Continuing what it started in the first season, Superior Donuts looks to serve up a fresh take on the tried and true traditions of multi-cam comedy every week. Heralded for its diverse cast, unique perspectives and laugh out loud wit, the sophomore sitcom aims to offer another slate of personal, relevant and provocative stories. Superior Donuts is committed to tackling social and political issues of the day, such as police brutality, the cost of higher learning, gang violence, gentrification, and other topical subjects with insight and authenticity. Even with this ambitious goal Superior Donuts somehow finds a way to deliver big laughs and authentic, relatable characters. If living up to this high standard seems like a tall task, it is. Fortunately, Superior Donuts has talented writers, proven production crew and an exceptional cast to pull it off. This season is led by Emmy Award® winner, Judd Hirsch as Arthur, owner of the shop located firmly in the middle of Chicago’s rapidly All Rights Reserved ©2016 CBS Broadcasting, Inc.
