Directed by Jo Lenhart
Sensational Drama. Set in the 1950s, the evolving African-American experience is explored as a former star of the Negro baseball league is excluded from the major leagues during his prime. Now working as a garbage man, bitterness takes its toll on his relationships as his son wants his own chance to play in the major leagues. Winner of the Tony Award for Best Play.
