The Texas premiere of the three-person drama represents a revised version of the play, which first premiered at the Public Theater Off-Broadway in spring 2010. The Zach production will ultimately represent the published edition of the play.

The Book of Grace began previews June 2 and will run through July 10. The principal cast includes Eugene Lee, Nadine Mozon and Shaun Patrick Tubbs.

The production has scenic and costume design by Michael Raiford, lighting design by Jason Amato, sound design by Antonio Garfias, video design by Colin Lowry and fight direction by Tina Gramann.

Here's how the Zach bills the work: "A South Texas family breaks through familial borders when a young man named Buddy is encouraged by his stepmother Grace to return home and reunite with his father Vet, a border patrol agent. The prodigal son confronts his father, and fences are erected as everyday life erupts into a battle for personal survival. At once fiercely intimate and explosive, this surprising and truly original play finds three people bound together by longing, passion and ambition."
