“Two Trains Running,” the latest offering from M Ensemble at Miami’s Sandrell Rivers Theater, isn’t just another production of an August Wilson play. It’s an ongoing part of the mission

August Wilson's Pittsburgh Cycle, also known as the American Century Cycle, is made up of ten plays, written between 1982 and 2005. Each set in a different decade in Pittsburgh's Hill District (with the exception of Ma Rainey's Black Bottom), the plays are meant to depict the Black experience throughout the 20th century.

August Wilson's "Two Trains Running" is set in a Pittsburgh diner with history racing by outside the window.

“Two Trains Running” is one of the finest plays in August Wilson’s renowned 10-play “Century Cycle” that captures elements of Black life in each decade of the 20th century. And Court Theatre’s latest revival of this seminal work is not to be missed.
