ABOUT
Winner of 1987 Pulitzer Prize and 1987 and 2010 Tony Award
Troy Maxson, one of the greatest characters of American theater, has stepped up to the plate too many times in his life only to go down swinging. Shut out of the big leagues by prejudice, the former Negro League homerun king is now a garbage collector just trying to make a living and do right by his family. When his youngest son shows promise on the high school football team, Troy must come to terms with his past disappointments or risk tearing his family apart.
“August Wilson at his finest!” – Boston Herald
This is Wilson’s 1950s entry into his Century Cycle – a decade-by-decade exploration of the black experience in 20th century America – from which MTC previously produced his 1940s entry Seven Guitars in 2011.
“Universal enough to touch a chord in every human heart.” – The New York Times
