Ozzie and Harriet, Pulled Apart By The Vietnam War

The Leonard Lopate Show | Nov 20, 2014

David Rabe discusses the revival of his Tony Award-winning play “Sticks and Bones,” along with Holly Hunter and Bill Pullman, who star in it. It’s the first major New York revival of the play, and it opens the New Group’s 20th Anniversary season. It’s a savagely comic portrait of an average American family pulled apart by the return of a son from the Vietnam War. It’s playing at Pershing Square Signature Center.
