August, Osage County

Hey guys-

We were watching the Tony's tonight, and watching clips and awards given to the new play "August, Osage County."

Do you guys think this is hilarious that there is a play written about and set in the county that borders our home-county of Montgomery county, Kansas?

Anyway- I thought it was.

For Joe- Osage County is the county in Oklahoma that houses Bartlesville, OK, borders Tulsa county, and borders the county that Coffeyville is in. I mean- it's where we're from. And now it's the subject of a Tony-award-winning play.

The writer is from Tulsa, OK and is an ensemble member here at Steppenwolf Theater in Chicago. I'm going to try to get in contact with him and tell him I'm from the beautiful town of Coffeyville, KS and that if a tornado went through his county it went through mine.
