Milwaukee Rep: Seven Guitars
March 22, 2023 @ 12:45 PM - 5:00 PM
American Century Cycle
What would you do for a chance to live out your dream? In 1940s Pittsburgh, struggling singer Floyd “Schoolboy” Barton’s shot at stardom comes when a major recording studio offers an unexpected opportunity of a lifetime. Armed with newfound hope and a second chance, Floyd and his friends discover that dreams are heartbreakingly fragile when confronted by a world set against them. This riveting play, Milwaukee Rep’s eighth production in August Wilson’s iconic 10-play American Century Cycle, explores faith, artistry, humor, oppression and love set to the fiery rhythms and intense lyricism of American blues music. Please contact Megan at 414-225-8259 for ticket availability and pricing.
“Rich with exceptionally vivid characters.”
