Man from Nebraska
By Tracy Letts

REGIONAL PREMIERE

presented with generous support from Fulbright & Jaworski, L.L.P.

Ken Carpenter is a good husband and father who awakens one night to realize that he no longer believes in God. As his family grapples with this shock to their orderly lives, Ken follows his pastor’s advice and strikes out on a quest for his faith that leads him through the wild world of London counterculture and ultimately back home to a new beginning. A masterpiece of subtlety and grace by Pulitzer Prize-winner Tracy Letts (August: Osage County), this moving, funny play reveals yearning and deep emotion beneath the surface of seemingly tranquil lives.
