August Wilson’s “The Piano Lesson”
October 30 @ 7:00 pm – 10:00 pm
West Art happily welcomes Lancaster Shakespeare Theater back for another amazing production.
For Lancaster Shakespeare Theatre’s first-ever production not written or directly inspired by William Shakespeare, it has turned to “the American Shakespeare,” August Wilson. The Piano Lesson is a poignant exploration of heritage, family ties, and the struggle for identity set against the backdrop of 1930s Pittsburgh. Wilson weaves a powerful narrative that delves deep into Black culture and the legacy of slavery. Through rich dialogue and vivid characters, The Piano Lesson resonates as a timeless testament to the complexities of legacy and the enduring power of the past.
