King Hedley II

For the first time, Alliance’s audiences can experience August Wilson’s King Hedley II in the up-close and intimate Hertz stage setting. Tony-nominated, this fierce and passionate tragedy of the common man has been hailed as a latter-day Hamlet. In 1985 in Pittsburgh’s “Hill” neighborhood, ex-con King Hedley II has left a kingdom of stolen goods and dreams of opening a legit business of his own.
