Photo Flash: Huntington Theatre Co's FENCES
Fences by August Wilson , Directed by Kenny Leon
9/11/2009 - 10/11/2009 BU Theatre - Mainstage
When his rise through the Negro baseball leagues hit the ceiling of racial prejudice, Troy Maxson turned away from a world of unfulfilled promises and denied opportunities. But in 1957, his son Cory, an emerging football star, sees the world through very different eyes, and his wife Rose yearns for an outlet for her love.
Winner of the 1987 Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award for Best Play, Fences is the sixth chapter in August Wilson's groundbreaking ten-play cycle of the African-American experience in the 20th century and the ninth of his plays to be staged by the Huntington, one of Wilson's longstanding artistic homes.
Approximate Running Time: 2 hours, 20 minutes; including 1 intermission
