The Acting Company presents August Wilson’s Two Trains Running

Written by August Wilson
Directed by Lili-Anne Brown

Saturday, March 1, 2025 at 8 p.m.

This powerful Pulitzer Prize finalist, a masterpiece from acclaimed playwright August Wilson, paints a profound portrait of history through everyday life amid the civil rights movement. While the owner of a Pittsburgh diner fights with the city over the fate of his building, his long-time regulars grapple with love, money and a changing world. See the sixth installment of Wilson’s trailblazing “American Century Cycle,” which chronicles the 20th century African American experience one decade and play at a time. Contains adult content.
