August: Osage County (Theatre) | comment |
August: Osage County is a play written by Tracy Letts, which premiered at Chicago's Steppenwolf Theatre in 2007 and was given a Broadway showing shortly thereafter. It won the 2008 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.The play tells the story of the Weston family, which is forced to reunite after the patriarch, once-famous poet Beverly Weston, turns up dead from suicide. It becomes apparent that Beverly's vindictive and pill-popping widow, Violet, has psychologically damaged each of their three middle-aged daughters, causing them to lead similarly self-destructive lives.After Beverly's funeral, what is meant to be a time of mourning for the Westons devolves into several weeks of pettiness, cruelty, and recrimination that destroys the family from within.A film adaptation, directed by John Wells and starring Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, and an All-Star Cast, was released on Christmas Day 2013. | |

Control Freak | |
August: Osage County (Theatre) / int_11ad560b | comment |
It's hinted that the reason Barbara is such a Control Freak towards Bill and Jean, and the reason she did not speak to Beverly and Violet, was to avoid the toxic mayhem of the Weston household. | |

Never Trust a Trailer | |
August: Osage County (Theatre) / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: The trailer for the Meryl Streep film adaptation makes Osage look like an upbeat family dramedy. Only someone who has seen the play would know how dark and depressing the story really is. The poster is much more truthful◊. | |

Parents as People | |
August: Osage County (Theatre) / int_20989d05 | comment |
Violet, the matriarch of the entire clan, is vindictive, emotionally abusive and manipulative. Her behavior in-universe is the reason why her grown-up daughters are growing apart from her. It is then revealed that Violet's mother was even worse to her and her sister, Mattie Fae, making them both dark examples of Parents as People. | |

Downer Ending | |
August: Osage County (Theatre) / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: Karen learns that Steve is a sleazy pedophile but chooses to ignore the truth and marries him anyway; Ivy learns that she is actually half-siblings with her lover Little Charles but still chooses to run away with him to New York; Bill and Jean become fed up with Barbara's domineering behavior and leave her; Barbara ends up becoming an emotionally destitute drunk like her parents, and after finally realizing just how far gone Violet is, leaves her to eventually die miserable and alone. In the film this becomes Lighter and Softer, if only by omission. Ivy is shown driving away by herself. Barbara is still left at the house, although no descent into alcoholism is shown. It is also left ambiguous what happens to Violet. The entire family has left at this point, though she is shown with housekeeper Johnna. Karen still marries Steve. | |

The Unfair Sex | |
August: Osage County (Theatre) / int_6ae4dedd | comment |
Mattie Fae's behavior towards her son, Little Charles, plays off the same way sitcoms play off mothers making jabs at their adult sons. Usually, The Unfair Sex is in play and no one really cares that the man is being bullied, especially if it's because of their mother or spouse. At the start of the play, Charles Sr. is clearly on the end of his rope with his wife's behavior and finally rips her a new one after she insults Little Charles one too many times, threatening to leave her if she doesn't stop her abusive behavior. This also mirrors Barbara's marriage with Bill, where it is revealed that he left her for one of his own college students. It is never explicitly explained why, but the play and the characters observe that Barbara is similar to Violet in many aspects. While Bill cheating on Barbara is also considered wrong, the narrative isn't one-sided against him and shows how difficult Barbara has been during their marriage. | |

Dysfunction Junction | |
August: Osage County (Theatre) / int_820ac3c5 | comment |
Dysfunction Junction: The Weston family in spades: Even before being Driven to Suicide, Beverly Weston was a failed poet and alcoholic who had crossed into the Despair Event Horizon over the state of his wife and family. Violet Weston is a pill-popping Abusive Parent and Manipulative Bitch who insults each of her family members and turns them against each other. Barbara Weston, Violet's oldest daughter, is a neurotic Control Freak who constantly tries to micromanage the chaos around her, from Violet's drug addiction to her own failing marriage. Ivy Weston, Violet's middle daughter, is planning to run away with her first cousin Little Charles Aiken, unaware that he is actually her half-brother. Karen Weston, Violet's youngest daughter, is obsessed with her wedding plans even in the midst of her father's funeral and chooses to live in denial when her "perfect" fiancé tries to molest her niece. Bill Fordham, Barbara's husband, slept with one of his students at the college where he taught. Jean Fordham, Barbara's daughter, is apathetic towards the rest of the family and shows more concern for watching Lon Chaney's The Phantom of the Opera (1925) on television than attending Beverly's funeral. Mattie Fae Aiken, Violet's sister and Little Charles' mother, constantly puts down her son until her husband gives her the Reason You Suck treatment and his Brother–Sister Incest with Ivy is revealed. | |

Parental Favoritism | |
August: Osage County (Theatre) / int_88933ad4 | comment |
Parental Favoritism: Discussed. Violet tells Barb that she was Beverly's favorite and that she is partly responsible for his death by moving away. Ivy later counters this by saying that she was Beverly's favorite and Barb was Violet's, and that Barb's moving away hurt her the most. Of course, this leaves Karen as The Un-Favorite. | |

Deconstruction | |
August: Osage County (Theatre) / int_8ae880f7 | comment |
Deconstruction: Of the Dysfunctional Family. Often, this trope is played for comedy, particularly in sitcoms whereas the family is at odds with each other and even bully one another for little to no reason. While the play is a Black Comedy, it also tears down the trope and demonstrates how miserable these people are with one another. Violet, the matriarch of the entire clan, is vindictive, emotionally abusive and manipulative. Her behavior in-universe is the reason why her grown-up daughters are growing apart from her. It is then revealed that Violet's mother was even worse to her and her sister, Mattie Fae, making them both dark examples of Parents as People. Her daughters are not that much better. Barbara, her eldest, loathes Violet and cut off all contact with her until her father, Violet's husband Beverly, disappears and commits suicide. Ivy was stuck in their hometown taking care of Violet and Beverly while her sisters lived their lives and is desperate to leave and try living for herself. Karen is implied to be the most broken of the three as The Unfavorite and the most affected by the abuse. She has found herself in one abusive relationship after the next to the point where when her current fiance tries to molest her niece, Jean, she doesn't dump him and is still hellbent on marrying him just to have someone. Mattie Fae's behavior towards her son, Little Charles, plays off the same way sitcoms play off mothers making jabs at their adult sons. Usually, The Unfair Sex is in play and no one really cares that the man is being bullied, especially if it's because of their mother or spouse. At the start of the play, Charles Sr. is clearly on the end of his rope with his wife's behavior and finally rips her a new one after she insults Little Charles one too many times, threatening to leave her if she doesn't stop her abusive behavior. This also mirrors Barbara's marriage with Bill, where it is revealed that he left her for one of his own college students. It is never explicitly explained why, but the play and the characters observe that Barbara is similar to Violet in many aspects. While Bill cheating on Barbara is also considered wrong, the narrative isn't one-sided against him and shows how difficult Barbara has been during their marriage. While Violet and Mattie Fae had an awful mother in their childhood, the narrative doesn't try to justify their toxic behavior at all. In fact, Charles Sr. declares in his "The Reason You Suck" Speech to Mattie Fae that what their mother did to them doesn't justify their own shitty parenting and adds that his own family never treated each other like garbage. Violet and Mattie Fae's antics may be played for dark laughs, but Charles Sr. makes a point of saying that is not how families should be treating each other. | |

Then, Ivy learns from Violet that her first cousin Little Charles is actually her half-brother, but insists that she will still start a new life in New York with Little Charles without telling him the truth. | |

Similarly, Violet's mother was emotionally abusive, and in all likelihood far worse than Violet herself. Easy to see where she gets it from, huh? | |
