Get ready for an unforgettable performance with Gem of the Ocean tickets. Gem of the Ocean is a play written by the famous American playwright August Wilson. The play is part of the legendary Pittsburgh Cycle which tells the story of the African American experience during the 1900s. The play takes place in 1904 in the home of Aunt Ester who is a 285-year-old former slave. She is known throughout the town as the keeper of the people’s history, and many seek her out to cleanse their souls. Aunt Ester often welcomes those into her home who have experienced trauma or need guidance of some kind.
Gem of the Ocean focuses on the story of Citizen Barlow, a young man looking for a new life. Aunt Ester guides Citizen Barlow on his journey while also addressing turbulent racial events in the town. Through pain, sorrow, and understanding do the characters within Gem of the Ocean truly begin to find redemption and pave their way towards a new life of freedom. Through this play, August Wilson creates a universal understanding of the hardships placed upon African Americans in the twentieth century which has caused his plays to become some of the most popular in American history.
