8 E. Galena Blvd., Aurora, IL 60506
Sam Shepard’s True West comes to Copley Theatre, where estranged brothers Austin and Lee reunite and clash in a tense battle of ambition and rivalry. As their sibling conflict escalates, the line between order and chaos blurs in this classic.
When sibling rivalry collides with the American dream.
Nominated for four Tony Awards including Best Play. Pulitzer Prize finalist for Drama.
While house sitting just outside of LA, Austin just wants to finish his screenplay for the Hollywood producer prepared to buy it. One problem: his estranged brother Lee, a thief, just popped in for a visit. After five years apart, Austin and Lee discover they only have one thing in common: a sense of cutthroat ambition, no matter who stands in the way. As the conflict and chaos between the two boils, things go from tense to savage as nerves and family ties fray, and the tables turn for them both.
