Radio Golf

As an election looms, what is the cost of progress?

Harmond Wilks is on the verge of becoming Pittsburgh’s first Black mayor, and his ambitious redevelopment project for the Hill District – including a new golf course – promises economic growth and a new future. But his plans may be derailed by a single rundown house owned by long time resident “Old Joe” Barlow, who may have a deeper connection to Harmond’s past. Along with his upwardly-mobile business partner Roosevelt, his public relations mastermind wife Mame, and street-smart handyman Sterling, Harmond is forced to confront the cost of progress, the meaning of legacy, and the value of community. The riveting final chapter of August Wilson’s 10-play American Century Cycle, Radio Golf is a compelling and timely drama that challenges us to consider what we are willing to sacrifice for the sake of the future.

“Surprising, suspenseful, and crowd-rousing… crackling comedy, engaging snap, and theatrical zest.” – The New York Times
