Los Angeles Valley College department of Theater Arts presents JOE TURNER'S COME AND GONE by August Wilson.
Set in a black boardinghouse in Pittsburgh in 1911, this drama by the author of THE PIANO LESSON, SEVEN GUITARS and FENCES is an installment in the author's award-winning series chronicling black life in each decade of this century. Each denizen of the boardinghouse has a different relationship to a past of slavery as well as to the urban present. They include the proprietors, an eccentric clairvoyant with a penchant for old country voodoo, a young homeboy up from the South,and a mysterious stranger who is searching for his wife.

Performances are Thursday through Saturday, October 10, 11, 12 and 17, 18, 19 in the Horseshoe Theater, Los Angeles Valley College.
