Synopsis

Estranged brothers Lee & Austen meet unexpectedly whilst Austen is house sitting for their mother. Austen, under pressure to complete a screen play, is savouring the solitude of mother’s house. Lee arrives and turns Austen’s world on its head. The scene descends into chaos and violence as the brothers confess latent feelings of a wasted life and utter desperation and desolation.
True West is playwright, Sam Shepards, brilliant social commentary on sibling rivalry, envy and that violence can come from the most unexpected sources.
