    Harold Loomis has finally gained his freedom, but has lost his song. His search for spiritual and emotional healing brings him to a Pittsburgh boarding house that’s a refuge for fellow travelers rebuilding their lives in the Great Migration. Staged with the intimacy and power that Penumbra is known for, this lyrical play by acclaimed playwright August Wilson blends realism and mysticism to capture a solemn crossroads of Black identity and American history.
