About this event
Sunday, September 13, 2026 at 2:00pm
Ma Rainey, set in 1920s Chicago, is a fraught recording session, that is pulsing with rousing blues music, wry comedy, and poetic insight. August Wilson is a Pulitzer Prize winning playwright known for his monumental work chronicling the African American experience throughout each decade of the 20th century.
Join us after the show for an optional dinner at "Q by Peter Chang," walking distance from the theater.
