South Camden Theatre Company presents King Hedley II from April 24 through May 10 at 400 Jasper Street, Camden, NJ.
In this play by August Wilson, guns are brandished like toys, and the talk crackles with chatter about drive-by shootings. A burial and a killing take place onstage, and the Grim Reaper has at last claimed mighty Aunt Ester. All too soon: She was just 366 years old. Even so the mystery of life, not death, is the true subject of Wilson’s King Hedley II.
For the men and women passing the time in the backyard of a ravaged row house in the Hill District of Pittsburgh in 1985, life is like an ornery lover, comforting you tonight and frustrating you tomorrow. Just when you think you have it figured out, it throws another curveball.
