Radio Golf

TheatreWorks presents the regional premiere of Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright August Wilson’s Radio Golf. The last of Wilson’s ten play cycle chronicling the African-American experience in the 20th century, this hustling comedy-drama set in the 1990’s tells the story of an Ivy League-educated lawyer seeking to redevelop a rundown area of a Pittsburgh neighborhood while preparing his campaign to become the city’s first black mayor.

A brilliant and bittersweet look at the forces of change in a neighborhood and a people caught between history and the looming 21st century, Radio Golf captures the essence of alienation and assimilation occurring throughout America. Harry J. Elam, Jr. directs.
