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

Description
by Lanford Wilson and Kenneth Fuchs
Jewel Theatre Company presents two rarely seen musicals. The pairing of dialogue from Pulitzer Prize winning author Lanford Wilson (Talley's Folly) with music by award winning 2007 Cabrillo Music Festival composer Kenneth Fuchs sets the stage for a rarely experienced melodic theatre event about two touching and humorous stories of friendship.
The Great Nebula depicts Louise and Carrie, two old college friends who have taken opposite paths in life but have a chance meeting that reveals dashed dreams and unrequited love. In Betrothal, two horticulturists, the dogmatic Ms. J.H. Joslyn and the fragile Mr. Kermit Wasserman have a pugnacious yet enchanting encounter after showing their prize irises.
