About the Show

A Broadway revival starring Samuel L. Jackson, Danielle Brooks, and John David Washington.

August Wilson's Pulitzer Prize-winning play about family, history, and survival returns to Broadway. It is part of Wilson's 10-play Century Cycle.

Set in Pittsburgh’s Hill District in 1936, the drama follows the Charles family who can't agree on what to do with an old piano. Boy Willie wants to sell the antique piece while his sister believes the heirloom, covered with carvings detailing the family’s rise from slavery, should remain in the family.

Tony nominee (and Samuel L. Jackson's wife) LaTanya Richardson Jackson directs.
