Beck Center for the Arts presents August Wilson's Two Trains Running, directed by Jimmie Woody. Set in a coffee shop in Pittsburgh's Hill District during the 1960s, the drama unfolds through the lives of relatable characters, including a wise elder, an ex-con, and a waitress with a past. As the neighborhood approaches economic change, the play explores the hopes and dreams of a community on the brink. This poignant work showcases Wilson's lyrical dialogue and deep insight into the human experience.
