True West has become a favorite among actors, with a recent production featuring Broadway siblings Matt and Dan Bogart, and a controversial 2004 staging that recast women as the dueling brothers. True West made its New York premiere at the Public Theater in 1980 starring Tommy Lee Jones and Peter Boyle. The 1982 Off-Broadway revival boasted a line-up of actors including James Belushi, Gary Cole, Erik Estrada, Dennis Quaid and Randy Quaid. In 2000 Broadway saw its first production of True West, featuring John C. Reilly and Phillip Seymour Hoffman swapping brotherly roles on a regular basis.
