August Wilson's The Piano Lesson 

Directed by Paige Hernandez 

Award-winning American classic 

This Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece, presented as part of Baltimore’s August Wilson Celebration, tells the story of a pair of siblings and the fate of their cherished family heirloom: a piano carved with images of their ancestors previously owned by the family’s former enslavers. Set in 1930s Pittsburgh, the play weaves history and spirituality together in a haunting narrative that explores the conflict between protecting one’s heritage and forging a path into the future.
