August Wilson’s THE PIANO LESSON
Directed by Francois Battiste
The Joan and Robert Rechnitz Theater
August Wilson’s epic THE PIANO LESSON pits brother against sister as the Charles family fights over the fate of their prized heirloom—a hand-carved piano. One wants to get rich off its sale, the other will do anything to keep it in the family. In this Pulitzer Prize winner, the ghosts of the past battle against the promise of the future.
