Radio Golf Pre-Reception at the August Wilson House

September 8, 2024 @ 6:00 pm - 9:30 pm

Radio Golf Event (5)

Come and enjoy a captivating performance of August Wilson’s Radio Golf, brought to life by the Pittsburgh Playwrights Theatre Company. This unique event will take place outdoors at the August Wilson House, offering a beautiful and fitting backdrop for this famous work about politics, gentrification and the redevelopment of the Hill District.

Radio Golf is the final play in August Wilson’s Century Cycle, a series of ten plays that chronicle African-American life in the 20th century. The play is set in Pittsburgh in the late 1990s and follows Harmond Wilks, a real estate developer and entrepreneur who wants to become Pittsburgh’s first Black mayor. Wilks is determined to revive his childhood neighborhood, the Hill District, but grapples with the risk of losing the neighborhood’s history.

Be sure to reserve your seats today, and spend the evening with the Hill CDC Staff and Board during what is sure to be an incredible performance. See you there!
