Description

Sam Shepard's Buried Child is a powerful and unsettling drama that explores the dark secrets and troubled relationships within one family. When Vince arrives at his grandparents' farmhouse, he is met with a scene of madness and confusion, as if no one remembers who he is or where he comes from. As tensions rise, it becomes clear that this family's problems run deep, rooted in a traumatic event that has been buried for years - literally. The memory of an unwanted child, hidden away in secret, holds the key to their salvation, but at what cost? This revised edition of Shepard's Pulitzer Prize-winning play is as fierce and unforgettable as it was when it first premiered in 1978. A searing portrayal of family dynamics and the devastating consequences of keeping secrets, Buried Child is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in drama and the human condition.
