Buried Child: Sam Shepard's Pulitzer-Winning Family Drama

Full Price:
$20.00 - $45.00
Our Price:
$10.00 - $22.50

Set during the rural economic slowdown of the 1970s, playwright Sam Shepard's universally acclaimed Buried Child resonates as strongly today as it did when it launched Shepard's career in 1978. A Pulitzer winner for drama, Buried Child makes for a fierce, forceful and unforgettable portrayal of the realities of the American Dream. The realistic masterpiece mixes comedy and drama, keen commentary and deep emotion in a squalid farm home occupied by a clan filled with suppressed violence, apparent unhappiness and dark secrets. Kenneth Kelleher directs this San Jose Stage Company production. Learn More

I would have rated higher had it not been a repeat of an earlier event...but it's very funny and I would recommend it to anyone who has not seen it.

I had a great time at Vaudevile! It was a treat when Alison Arngrim (Nellie Olsen) got up on stage and introduced the first act! The entire show was just great from start to end but I especailly enjoyed Professor Numm. His 'glass' act and nail pounding into his nose was incredible! The Happy Hobo was pretty funny too! As was the entire cast!!! Keep up the excellent work!
