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

Thought it was a little hard to follow. Characters went between being humans and then dogs.Written on Apr 20 2009

Description
<p>Based on the works of Jack London
Book and Lyrics by Jon Lipsky; music by Bill Barclay
Directed by Clay Hopper</p>
<p>Welcome to the ruthless world of the frigid Yukon during the Klondike Gold Rush. This frozen, unforgiving land is inhabited by two types of beings: dogs and their masters. While they have come for fame and glory, dogs and humans must learn to endure not only the wilderness, but the loneliness too. Full of original songs, this riveting show pits man vs. animal in instinct, survival, loyalty, and humanity.</p>
