WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

Derrick Sanders directs August Wilson's King Hedley II as part of Signature's August Wilson Series. Set in a backyard in the decaying Hill District of Pittsburgh, King Hedley II follows the characters created by August Wilson in Seven Guitars. A woman is tormented by a secret she has kept for 36 years, while her only son returns home after serving time for murder to find a neighborhood riddled with crime, poverty and broken families. King's epic struggle to survive is at the center of this poetic portrayal of life in the inner city during the 1980's.

King Hedley II

By David Finkle · Mar 11, 2007 · New York City

Signature's revival of August Wilson's drama has the same strengths and weaknesses as the play's 2001 Broadway production.
