August Wilson's
Seven Guitars
1995 Pulitzer Prize Finalist
May 21 to June 27, 2027
“I don’t want to live my life without. Everybody I know live without. I don’t want to do that. I want to live with... Floyd Barton is gonna make his record. Floyd Barton is going to Chicago”
In the backyard of a Pittsburgh tenement in 1948, friends gather to mourn a blues guitarist and singer who died just as his career was on the verge of taking off. The sixth in the author's American Century Cycle, a decade-by-decade exploration of the Black experience in America, Seven Guitars is part bawdy comedy, part dark elegy, and part mystery.
“Displays a narrative sweep and almost biblical richness of language and character... Mr. Wilson writes so vividly that the play seems to have the narrative scope and depth of a novel.” – NY Times |
