“A Blockbuster And A Major American Play” – New York Daily News

Three major theatres – Theatrical Outfit, Dominion Entertainment Group, and Alabama Shakespeare Festival – join forces to bring August Wilson’s Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winning FENCES to two states for a one-of-a-kind revival. In 1950s Pittsburgh, Troy Maxson built fences to protect his family. But what happens when those walls keep dreams out? This American classic is an explosively funny and heartbreaking portrait of an American family, following a former Negro League baseball star as his dreams collide with his son’s aspirations.

Winner Of BEST PLAY • Tony Awards • Drama Desk Awards • Pulitzer Prize
Run Time: 2 hours and 30 minutes with 1 intermission
Please Note: This production tackles mature and complex themes and uses strong adult language and outdated cultural attitudes. We recommend this show for audiences ages thirteen and older.
