Phenomenal cast and I don't think I've seen a August Wilson play since THE PIANO LESSON...
Whats the word on the LA Production? I think it opens this weekend

If anyone in the New York metro area is interested, the very reliable Two River Theater (in Red Bank, NJ) is also staging a production of MA RAINEY'S BLACK BOTTOM starting next week. Ruben Santiago-Hudson is directing and the cast includes Brandon Dirden and Michael Cumpsty, among others. Short train ride from NYC.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."
-John Guare, Landscape of the Body
