The New Pittsburgh Courier was there as the “Celebrating August Wilson Through Hip-Hop” event was held at the Hillman Library in Oakland.
The event featured a video presentation that explored dance through the lens of August Wilson, drawing inspiration from monologues and play titles from Wilson’s American Century Cycle.
The project was developed by August Wilson Archive Community Artist Scholar Brian Starks, in collaboration with Dr. Sheila Beasley.
The event was held on the third floor of the Hillman Library, April 23.
