REVIEW: The Minutes at the Black Box Theatre in Moline

As the 2026 Quad Cities theatre season begins to wind down, once again The Black Box Theatre in Moline presents a QCA premier of The Minutes by Tracy Letts, who also authored the Tony Award winning August: Osage County. The Minutes has also garnered multiple award nominations but lost out by what I can only assume was a very narrow margin. This script is relatively new, making its debut at Chicago’s Steppenwolf Theatre in 2017 before moving to the James Earl Jones Theatre in New York City in 2020.
