Playing 'Piano' at Performance Network

"A Sunday
Afternoon Performance
on the Network Theater
Island of From$10
La Grande
Jatte." Using a piece of art as a
catalyst for theater is not a com-
mon feat, but well-known play-
wright August Wilson managed it
too, finding his influence for "The
Piano Lesson" from Rosmare
Bearden's synthetic cubist paint-
ing, "Piano Lesson." Performance
Network Theatre is now bringing
the collage alive each night with
its revival of "The Piano Lesson."
"The Piano Lesson" is set in
Pittsburgh, during the Great
Depression, as the Sutter family's
current generation is debating
what it should do with a family
heirloom, a piano. The piano is a
very nostalgic object, consisting
of carved faces from people in
the family's lineage. During the
course of the play, a brother and
sister debate and argue with one
another about what they believe
should be done with the musi-
cal instrument and family token.
While Boy Willie, the brother,
wants to sell the piano in order to
buy the land his ancestors worked
on as a slave, his sister Bernice
insists on keeping it.
"The Piano Lesson" is under-
stood to be a part of Wilson's
"Pittsburgh Cycle", which con-
sists of 10 plays that illustrate
African Americans during the
20th century. A few years ago,
PNT presented a production of
"Fences," which is also a part of
the cycle. "Fences" director Tim
Rhoze will be returning to PNT
to direct this production. graphs," Rhoze said. "That was

Piano Lesson," especially after the

With such a diverse season thus
far, it is somewhat surprising that
PNT chose to tackle such a classic

colors on stage so that it would "For all the new and contem-
resemble old sepia-tone photo- porary work we do at PNT, I feel
it is important to occasionally do a
classic, or a play that is more well
known," Wolber said. "It gives our
audience something to compare
what we are doing to. If we are
just doing brand-new stuff, then it
makes it difficult for our audiences
to gauge if we are doing it well."
Though PNT is not presenting
any radical or unusual twist to this
play, the company is being innova-
tive for attacking a type of theater
that is somewhat more traditional
than their normal lineup.
"It is not necessarily a newspin
on it, but we are looking to tap
into what makes it such a pow-
erful piece that allows it to still
stand today."
