About me:
Heads roll, shatter and blow in KILLER JOE, the savagely funny, pitch-dark comedy by Pulitzer Prize Winning playwright Tracy Letts (AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY).
The play focuses on the Smith family, a greedy, vindictive clan of trailer-trash Texans who hatch a plan to murder their estranged, naggy, alcoholic matriarch to cash in on her insurance policy. Unable to bring themselves to do the deed, they hire Killer Joe Cooper (Ken Bradley), a full-time cop and part-time contract killer. Once he steps into their trailer, their simple plan quickly spirals out of control.
running time: 1 hour 30 minutes with one 15 minute intermission

About the Play
Originally staged at the famed Steppenwolf Theatre KILLER JOE has gone on to be performed in 15 countries in 12 languages since its Chicago debut. It won top honors at the Edinburgh, Scotland, Fringe Theater Festival in '94, then played to sellout audiences at London's The Buck and West Theater during a four-month run in which it won the Time Out Award as the Best Play of 1995. In 1998 it found an off-Broadway home at the 200-seat Soho Playhouse.
