Get ready for Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival’s 2026 Legends and Legacy Season with As You Mic It: The Prologues. In this mini-episode, Director of Education and Community Engagement Kim Carson examines August Wilson’s The Piano Lesson, a powerful story of family, memory, and the legacies we inherit. Set against the backdrop of 1930s Pittsburgh, the play centers on a brother and sister divided over an heirloom piano carved with the history of their family. As they wrestle with questions of heritage, ambition, and obligation, Wilson asks what we owe to the past and what we carry forward into the future. Join us for a closer look at one of the great works of the American stage and the stories etched into every generation. Directed by James Ijames.
