King Hedley II
4040 Twiggs Street, San Diego, 92110
Cost: $36 - $54
Cygnet Theatre is staging two of August Wilson's plays Seven Guitars and King Hedley in repertory. Not only is this a herculean feat, it allows theatergoers to see the many connections, and striking differences, of the black experience in 1948 (Guitars) and 1985 (Hedley), where the next generation faces even greater constriction. Director Jennifer I. Nelson and a devoted cast deserve credit for the conversations and arias and what Wilson called the "pain of living" in between. Critic's Pick.
