SUMMARY:Jitney
DESCRIPTION:Written by: August Wilson\nDirected by: Renzo Carbonera\nPresented by: Sardegna Teatro and La Piccionaia \nPresented in Italian with English supertitles \nOctober 9th – October 11th\, 2026Performances:Friday\, October 9\, 2026 @ 730PM\nSaturday\, October 10\, 2026 @ 230PM\nSunday\, October 11\, 2026 @ 230PM \nBUY TICKETSSynopsis:Pittsburgh 1977 \nIn the midst of the steel industry crisis\, for which the city is known worldwide\, five drivers\, Becker\, Youngblood\, Turnbo\, Fielding and Doub\, struggle to get by. Clinging nostalgically to the past\, while seeing only the dark outlines of an uncertain future on the horizon. \nIn the early decades of the twentieth century\, an alternative form of transport to buses and licensed taxis emerged in the predominantly African American neighborhoods of U.S. cities: the “jitney”. In those neighborhoods\, taxis did not circulate; they were too expensive and they refused to pick up Black passengers. The “jitneys” operated outside the boundaries of the law\, but provided job opportunities for people like our five protagonists\, while also offering an essential service to the community. \nAugust Wilson\, the most prolific and influential African American playwright of all time\, is being translated for the very first time into another language (Italian) and staged with an entirely Black Italian cast. \nThe stage set is minimal and abstract\, designed to focus the gaze on what is said and how it is said\, on the shades of meaning enriched by the actors’ double roles\, on the cinematic side lighting\, and on the projections displayed on two vertical\, smartphone-like screens. \nWhen Booster\, Becker’s son\, is released after twenty years in prison for murder\, a cathartic journey begins\, intertwining the language of the street with the syncopated rhythms of jazz and with the classical language of tragedy. \nSpecial Offer:Experience the Fall Duo and Save \nThis fall\, join us for two unforgettable productions. \nPurchase tickets to Tank Stranger and Jitney in the same online order and use promo code FALLDUO20 to receive 20% off your Jitney tickets. \nOffer valid through August 31\, 2026.
