Theater Spotlight: Radio Golf |
|
Radio Golf is the kind of show that sneaks up on you, at first seeming to lack the grand ambitions of the early works in playwright August Wilson's cycle of 20th-century dramas, until the old ghosts sneakily make their presence felt.

'Radio Golf,' the last in August Wilson's 10-play cycle, not up to par with the rest |
|
In "Radio Golf," August Wilson attempts to put a capstone on his 10-play chronicle of the black experience in 20th century America. It's the kind of seemingly impossible task the two-time Pulitzer Prize winner relished.

Radio Golf @ Penumbra Theater |
|
Radio Golf is part of Penumbra's project to produce the entirety of Wilson's Century Cycle over the course of five years, and it’s worth remembering that, for Twin Citians, seeing these plays done this way by the people who knew and loved Wilson best is an extraordinary opportunity. No theater in the country does these plays better, and in a perfect world they would be required viewing by everyone.
