Pulitzer Prize winner James Ijames (Fat Ham) presents the world premiere of Wilderness Generation, a play directed by PTC Artistic Director Taibi Magar. Set over a single summer weekend, the play follows five cousins who gather at their grandmother's home in the Tidewater South. What begins as a family reunion evolves into a reckoning as old wounds and long-buried secrets emerge. Ijames explores themes of inherited trauma, silence, and survival in a play filled with humor, heartbreak, and the search for healing.

Don't miss this powerful, funny, and deeply human world premiere from one of America's most celebrated playwrights.
