It is the spring of 1948. In the still cool evenings of
Pittsburgh's Hill district, familiar sounds fill the air. A rooster
crows. Screen doors slam. The laughter of friends gathered for a
backyard card game rises just above the wail of a mother who has
lost her son. And there's the sound of the blues, played and sung
by young men and women with little more than a guitar in their
hands and a dream in their hearts.
August Wilson's Seven Guitars is the sixth chapter in his
continuing theatrical saga that explores the hope, heartbreak, and
heritage of the African-American experience in the twentieth
century. The story follows a small group of friends who gather
following the untimely death of Floyd "Schoolboy" Barton, a local
blues guitarist on the edge of stardom. Together, they reminisce
about his short life and discover the unspoken passions and undying
spirit that live within each of them.
