The author of the 1984-85 Broadway season's best play, MA RAINEY'S BLACK BOTTOM, returns with another powerful, stunning dramatic work that has won him new critical acclaim and the Pulitzer Prize.
The protagonist of FENCES, Troy Maxson, is a strong man, a hard man. He has had to be-to survive. For Troy Maxson has gone through life in an America where to be proud and black was to face pressures that could crush a man, body and soul. But now the 1950s are yielding to the new spirit of liberation in the 1960s... a spirit that is changing the world Troy Maxson has learned to deal with the only way he can....a spirit that is making him a stranger, angry and afraid, in a world he never knew and to a wife and son he understands less and less....
FENCES
"FENCES leaves no doubt that Mr. Wilson is a major writer, combining a poet's ear for vernacular with a robust sense of humor, a sure sense for crackling dramatic incident, and a passionate commitment to a great subject."
-Frank Rich, The New York Times
"A BLOCKBUSTER PIECE OF THEATER, A MAJOR AMERICAN PLAY PASSIONATELY PERFORMED."
