A newly revised edition of an American classic, Sam Shepard’s Pulitzer Prize—winning Buried Child is as fierce and unforgettable as it was when it was first produced in 1978.
A scene of madness greets Vince and his girlfriend as they arrive at the squalid farmhouse of Vince’s hard-drinking grandparents, who seem to have no idea who he is. Nor does his father, Tilden, a hulking former All-American footballer, or his uncle, who has lost one of his legs to a chain saw. Only the memory of an unwanted child, buried in an undisclosed location, can hope to deliver this family from its sin.

      Pulitzer Prize winner Shepard offers a revised edition of his 1978 play. In his new introduction, Shepard states that the 1995 Steppenwolf production, staged by actor Gary Sinise, showed him the flaws in the work, an intense family drama, which he's since corrected.
