Set in 1911, *Joe Turner’s Come and Gone* takes place in a Pittsburgh boarding house run by the steady Seth and the open-hearted Bertha Holly — a refuge for Black travelers navigating the upheaval of the Great Migration. Among them is Herald Loomis, a man searching for his lost wife — and for the self he lost during seven years of illegal enslavement under Joe Turner.

As old wounds surface and spiritual forces awaken, Loomis’s journey becomes a moving quest for selfhood and healing. Around him, others seek connection, purpose, and a future shaped by more than pain. Through poetic dialogue and deeply human characters, August Wilson crafts a story of resilience and rebirth.

Producer Brian Anthony Moreland said in a statement, “We are truly honored to return to August Wilson’s legacy. *Joe Turner’s Come and Gone* is Wilson’s seminal masterpiece — an unflinching exploration of pain, identity, and hope." 

## What to watch for
- Producer Brian Anthony Moreland returns to Broadway following his record-setting productions of August Wilson’s *The Piano Lesson*, starring Samuel L. Jackson.
- Taraji P. Henson is a Golden Globe Award winner and Academy Award, Tony Award, SAG Award, and Emmy Award nominee.
- Debbie Allen made her Broadway debut in 1970 in *Purlie* and has since starred in *Raisin, Ain’t Misbehavin’, West Side Story*, and *Sweet Charity*.
- Cedric “The Entertainer” is a six-time NAACP Image Award winner.

## Additional information

- Children under 4 years old will not be admitted. 
- No weapons permitted on the premises. No outside food or beverages, electric scooters, e-bikes, or battery-powered transportation devices, except when medically necessary.

Get *Our Town* tickets and see Emmy Award winner Jim Parsons return to Broadway and star as the Stage Manager in this beloved Thornton Wilder classic. Tony Award winner Kenny Leon stages this new production at the Barrymore Theatre that also features Zoey Deutch, Julie Halston, Katie Holmes, Ephraim Sykes, Richard Thomas, and more. *Our Town* tickets are available on New York Theatre Guide now.

*Our Town* on Broadway unites one of America’s most famous TV stars with one of theatre’s most acclaimed directors: Jim Parson won four Emmys for his comic turn as Sheldon Cooper on *The Big Bang Theory*, and director Kenny Leon won a Tony Award for *A Raisin in the Sun* and has three nominations for *Fences, A Soldier’s Play*, and, most recently, *Purlie Victorious: A Non-Confederate Romp through the Cotton Patch*. Together, these two titans of entertainment tell one of theatre’s greatest tales: Emily Webb and George Gibb’s love and life.

A cherished tale of marriage, loss, and community, *Our Town* is Thornton Wilder’s most produced play. Set between 1901 and 1913, the heartwarming story follows the townspeople of the fictional, idyllic Grover’s Corner, New Hampshire, as they go about their everyday lives. Theatrical in its use of the Stage Manger (Parsons), who serves as the narrator of this story, and its minimalist aesthetic that invites the audience to picture their own hometown, the play is endearing, brimming with life, and won Wilder a Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Since its premiere in 1938, *Our Town* has been adapted into TV shows, films, a musical, and opera. 

Given *Our Town*’s enduring legacy, Edward Albee once called it "the greatest American play ever written,” and, now, it returns to Broadway. See this starry production of *Our Town*, and get tickets on New York Theatre Guide.
