Radio Golf

Set in 1997 in a storefront redevelopment office in Pittsburgh’s Hill District, Radio Golf is the concluding play in August Wilson’s monumental ten-play cycle chronicling African American life during the twentieth century-an unprecedented series that includes the Pulitzer Prize-winning plays Fences and The Piano Lesson.  Completed shortly before his death in 2005, this bittersweet drama of assimilation and alienation in nineties America traces the forces of change on a neighborhood and its people caught between history and the twenty-first century.
