“August Wilson Century Cycle” * Box Set
by Sandy ~ November 14th, 2007. Filed under: Blogroll, Plays.All 10 of his plays together in one box! They all have intros by actors, directors, etc that have an appreciation of Mr.Wilson’s work. The plays could always be purchased separately, but now they are collected in hard cover with a nice presentation box.
In 2005, August Wilson completed the ten-play cycle:
- 1900s - Gem of the Ocean (2003)
- 1910s - Joe Turner’s Come and Gone (1984)
- 1920s - Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom (1982)
- 1930s - The Piano Lesson (1986)
- 1940s - Seven Guitars (1995)
- 1950s - Fences (1985) - Pulitzer Prize
- 1960s - Two Trains Running (1990)
- 1970s - Jitney (1982)
- 1980s - King Hedley II (2001)
- 1990s - Radio Golf (2005)
BTW- Yes, I know I’ve lots of entries about one of my favorite playwrights, but, I promise this is the last August Wilson post from me - for 2007(Amazon.com has the set at a good price)
