"Letts is a master of pitch-dark comedies that measure the grisliest depths of human behavior… Linda Vista is very funny, equally unsettling…An inspired, ruthless take on the classic midlife-crisis comedy." —Ben Brantley, New York Times Fifty-year-old Wheeler is moving into his own apartment after a nasty divorce. With a blend of humor and humanity, Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright Tracy Letts demonstrates the ultimate midlife crisis: the bewildering search for self-discovery once you’ve already grown up. “Tracy Letts is a profusely gifted playwright. In Linda Vista the writing is so zingy and the playwright’s voice so sharp…Some of his most compassionate writing.” -- David Rooney ― Hollywood Reporter "Funny, edgy, smart." -- Chris Jones ― Chicago Tribune "One of the most-intriguing, multifaceted and divisive characters to grace the stage in a long while." ― Los Angeles Daily News " Linda Vista is that rarity of rarities, a long comedy that feels shorter -- so much shorter, in fact, that you wouldn't willingly part with a word." ― Wall Street Journal “Lovely, funny, and sad…For all its easygoing pace and humor, Linda Vista goes to some truly dark places.” -- Bilge Ebiri ― Vulture “ Linda Vista is such a strong, warmly human, and emotionally satisfying comedy of crotchety manners…The dialogue is razor sharp…Altogether lovely, when you stop to wipe your tears from all those howls of laughter.” -- Steven Suskin ― New York Stage Review Tracy Letts is a playwright, actor, and resident company member of Steppenwolf Theatre Company. He was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for August: Osage County.
