Brothers in Conflict

Profile Theater opens the final
play of the current Sam Shepard
season, True West. Performances
begin Thursday, Nov. 6 and run
through Nov. 23 on the Alder Stage
at Artists Repertory Theatre, 1515
S.W. Morrison St.
True West follows a few tumultu
ous days in the lives of brothers Lee
and Austin, examining their rela
tionship as they manage fraternal
conflicts through brutal, and some
times disturbingly funny, means.
Many critics see this work as one
o f the award-winning playwright’s
“family quintet” of plays. Profile
Theater presented Shepard’s other
family dramas with a film screening
of “Fool for Love” in 2013, staged
readings of “A Lie of the Mind” in
July, and “Curse of the Starving
Class” in October, and a main stage
production of “Buried Child” in June.
