Limited Seating!

ATC is partnering with The Bill Nunn Theatre Outreach Project to present “The August Wilson Project” at the Grey Box Theatre on Saturday, January 26th at 7PM.  The Grey Box Theatre is located in Lawrenceville at 3595 Butler Street.

Through a deep exploration of August Wilson's Century Cycle led by actor Bill Nunn, the young ATC artists have created The August Wilson Project.  This evening will feature selections from August Wilson's plays, delivered by ATC through honest and insightful performances.  This brilliant material will be further highlighted by music, vocal performances and choreography that enrich the themes of the selections.

August Wilson's Century Cycle is an achievement in American theatre. Wilson wrote ten plays that are set in Pittsburgh, each in a different decade of the twentieth century. At the core of each work are soaring, lyrical monologues that take the song, laughter, pain, and rich content of African American life and place it in the mouths of a great and varied ensemble of characters. 

About The Bill Nunn Theatre Outreach Project:

The mission of the Bill Nunn Theatre Outreach Project is to create a platform for underserved public school students in the Pittsburgh region to gain access to theatre arts and work with seasoned professionals within the field.  Commanding actor, and Pittsburgh native, Bill Nunn made his feature debut in Spike Lee’s School Daze (1988), and etched an impressionable image of himself in viewers’ minds in his second film with Lee, Do the Right Thing (1989), playing the role of Radio Raheem.  Nunn has been in many feature films since that time.  Nunn’s goal for BNTOP is to nurture theatrical professionalism among young actors and to inspire a love of theatre and creative expression among urban youth across cultures in our communities.
