Last season’s sold out and legendary holiday event by Harlem Renaissance poet Langston Hughes, returns to the BTT stage for a special engagement. This stunning new production of Black Nativity is without a doubt a theatrical wonderment. A joyous company of singers, actors, dancers and musicians deliver its powerful message of joy, hope, victory and liberation.

JITNEY
Feb 6-22, 2026
August Wilson’s Jitney, written in 1979 is the first of the 10 monumental works in the American Century Cycle - his epic collection of plays that span across the decades to document African American experiences in the 20th century.
Set in 1977 Pittsburgh during the frenzy of “urban renewal” the play follows the personal struggles of five cab drivers as their jobs, futures and their cab stand are threatened as the city is shutting down businesses. As the unfair grip of gentrification has seized not only Pittsburgh, but marginalized, minority communities across the entire nation, we witness the fabric and vitality of the community as it unravels under this strain.
