King Hedley II

PHILADELPHIA PREMIERE
By August Wilson
Directed by Seret Scott
January 24 - February 23, 2003

Set during 1985 in two tenement backyards of Pittsburgh's Hill District, King Hedley II continues the saga begun in Seven Guitars (PTC, 1997), tracing the triumphs and trials of a community facing issues of family, unemployment and crime. King, an ex-convict, struggles with his past relationships as he tries to bring his neighborhood back together. With eloquence and passion, August Wilson continues his 20th century saga of the African-American experience.
