Event Details
From the writer of The Piano Lesson and Fences comes the story of Memphis Lee, a diner owner in Pittsburgh. Set in 1969 amidst the Civil Rights movement, Lee’s restaurant is scheduled to be demolished to make way for urban redevelopment. A fight for justice and dignity develops as members of the Black community battle for recognition and rights. Performed by The Acting Company, Two Trains Running reveals the depths of racism’s roots and its profound, perpetual effect on the American psyche.
