In this series of nine short plays, Pulitzer Prize-winning
playwright Robert Schenkkan has created a mesmerizing epic saga of
rural Kentucky and an unblinking look at the truth behind our
American mythology. Spanning two centuries and seven generations,
this is the story of three families whose lives are irrevocably
intertwined. From the darker realities of our pioneer heritage to
the bloody lessons of the Civil War, from the inspiring battles
between Union coal miners and deal-making management to the harsh
environmental legacy of strip-mining, this fascinating work
chronicles the lives of people who use any means possible to carve
out a better place for themselves in an often brutal, unpredictable
world. A remarkable theatrical event, The Kentucky Cycle is a
compelling and unsentimental look at the men and women who founded
this country and a powerful allegory for our times.
