A Noise Within continues its commitment to August Wilson’s “American Century Cycle” with King Hedley II, the ninth play in Wilson’s extraordinary 10-play cycle that explores the Black experience in 20th century America decade-by decade. After seven years in prison, King Hedley re-enters society eager to rebuild his life, but quickly confronts the inescapable challenges facing Black men in Reagan-era Pittsburgh. King’s disenfranchisement comes into conflict with the stories he’s been telling himself. Yet he continues to plant seeds where nothing can grow. Tickets start at $29; Student tickets start at $18; A Noise Within, 3352 E Foothill Blvd., Pasadena, CA 91107; (626) 356-3100; www.anoisewithin.org
