AUGUST WILSON’S RADIO GOLF

Directed by Obie Award winner Brandon J. Dirden

JOAN AND ROBERT RECHNITZ THEATER

NOV 6-21 / 2021

Two River returned to the stage with our critically acclaimed production of August Wilson’s Radio Golf that was forced to shut down early in its March 2020 run. In this, the tenth and final play in August Wilson’s American Century Cycle, real-estate developer Harmond Wilks is determined to become the first Black mayor of Pittsburgh and to revitalize the Hill District. Starbucks, Barnes & Noble and Whole Foods are ready to move in. But one particular house on the development site, at 1839 Wylie Avenue, must be torn down, a casualty of urban blight. And that house belonged to Wilson’s legendary Aunt Ester—forcing Harmond, and the Hill District itself, into a battle between the past and the future.

“With the superb direction of Brandon J. Dirden, and a cast that is perfect in their roles, it is a must-see show.” – BroadwayWorld
