Sesquicentennial Event Tomorrow

Saturday: The Piano Lesson by August Wilson August Wilson won his second Pulitzer Prize for this haunting and dynamic drama about the conflict between legacy and responsibility, hope and suffering, body and soul. At the heart of the play stands the ornately carved piano in the Pittsburgh home of Bernice Charles, a significant family heirloom that her borther Boy Willie wants to sell to buy the same Mississippi land that their ancestors worked as slaves. The struggle between brother and sister and past and future in this important work is a formidable theatrical encounter, transcending the bounds of plot and character into dimensions that are both historical and spiritual. This production is co-directed by Dr. John Gaston and Dr. Jimmy Bickerstaff.
