Sam Shepard Play Festival Live Onstage in Englewood
Elusive playwright Sam Shepard is known for plays such as True West and Buried Child, as well as award-winning acting roles in films such as The Right Stuff.
The Black Box Performing Arts Center is excited to honor Shepard's work this summer in THE SAM SHEPARD FESTIVAL, which delivers vibrant script-in-hand performances of a diverse sampling of 5 raucous one-act plays by the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright.
