A dangerously delicious theatrical adventure, this provocative comedy explores power politics and sexual attitudes in two very different eras: the 1880s and the 1970s. The play opens in colonial Africa, artfully connecting British imperialism to Victorian sexual repression. Later, the action jumps forward 100 years to the more permissive world of contemporary London. For the characters, however, only 25 years have passed, creating an explosive tension between their expectations and reality. An engrossing, moving work, Cloud 9 offers a clever—and often shocking—satire of the world as we know it.

After he is released from jail, blues singer Floyd "Schoolboy" Barton is asked to sign a record deal when a song he recorded months earlier becomes an unexpected hit. He's ready to jump-start his life—in work and in love—but fate intervenes in disastrous ways. Set in 1948 Pittsburgh, Seven Guitars resonates with the stories of seven African Americans who share a neighborhood and dreams for a brighter future. Filled with lush language and remarkable characters, this rich, riveting drama is one of Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright August Wilson's most beloved—and unforgettable—works.
