TAG presents August Wilson's Gem of the Ocean

TAG - The Actors' Group proudly presents the first of 10 plays in August Wilson's American Century Cycle; Gem of the Ocean.

It is 1904. A young man just up from Alabama seeks Aunt Ester--the ancient ancestress--to get his soul washed. She takes him on a spiritual journey to the City of Bones. Solly Two Kings, a conductor on the Underground Railroad, makes a final stand; and the residents of Pittsburgh’s Hill District reject racism and injustice in their community. A story of redemption, courage, and the promise of love unfolds as only August Wilson can tell it.
