Soul satisfying music and community
A Play Directed by Ron “OJ” Parson
Second only to Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, Seven Guitars is Wilson’s most musical play,bringing lyrically written monologues and live blues to the stage. A New York Times review of the original Broadway production writes that the characters “play off one another like the members of an improvising septet, each being used as an instrument to create the distinctive Wilson sound of the blues.”
