A pair of game-changing shows are celebrating big anniversaries, so now is a good time to revisit them and their legacies.
George C. Wolfe’s “The Colored Museum,” an anthology of sketches about Black culture (called exhibits), felt like a bolt of lighting when it premiered in 1986. At its heart, as Frank Rich said in his New York Times review, was the question “How do American Black men and women at once honor and escape the legacy of suffering that is the baggage of their pas ....

In the early 1990s, Crossroads Theatre Company’s creative team was approached by a funder of the acclaimed “Great Performances” PBS television program and asked: “If you could film any one Crossroads production for a national broadcast, what would it be?”
The team unhesitatingly chose “The Colored Museum,” written by an emerging playwright named George C. Wolfe. ....

George C. Wolfe finds the blues at the heart of 'Ma Rainey's'


There are few living talents who could be viewed as much of a New York theater institution as George C. Wolfe, the two-time Tony-winning director whose overall grasp of the arts is such that he speaks in cascades of enthusiasm and insight that he can barely contain. But if you want to get his goat, just ask him about opening up a celebrated play for the big screen, such as he did with August Wilson’s “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom,” in which Viola Davis plays the title role.
“I would like to take the words ‘open’ and ‘up’ and stomp them,” Wolfe says. “You can’t think about that.” ....

August Wilson's Uncompromising Vision "For Ma Rainey's Black Bottom"


American playwright August Wilson (1945–2005), in New York in 2000
August Wilson had a magnificent ear. His supreme gift as a playwright was for transforming African American vernacular into crystalline poetry onstage. His sense for language was also evident in how he chose to be known. Growing up in the largely Black, poor, and working-class Hill District of Pittsburgh, dreaming of the sort of literary glory enjoyed by his idols Richard Wright and Langston Hughes, the young man must have known that “Frederick Kittel Jr., Great Black Writer” somehow didn’t have the right ring to it. At the age of 20, he rejected being the namesake of his father, a white, German-born, alcoholic baker who was, the playwright would later recall, “a sporadic presence” in his life. “August” was originally his middle name. “Wilson” was the maiden name of his Black mother, Daisy. Put the two together, and you had a moniker exuding steadfast wisdom, a name with gravitas, a name com ....
