August Wilson's "Fences": A Conversation with The Classic Theatre of San Antonio

Presented by The Classic Theatre of San Antonio at Online/Virtual Space

Join us and artists from our upcoming production of “Fences,” by August Wilson during DreamWeek 2023 in a roundtable discussion to talk about the playwright and our upcoming production of his Pulitzer Prize-winning work. This virtual event is FREE and open to anyone. Don’t miss this behind-the-scenes peek at our show!

In the play, a former African American League baseball player struggles to co-exist with the racial trauma he still carries from his time in the sport. When his frustrations lead to a series of tragic choices, his relationships with his wife and son suffer the consequences. Set in the 1950s, it is the sixth in Wilson’s ten-part “Pittsburgh Cycle”. “Fences” explores the evolving Black American experience and examines race relations, among other themes.
