 “Theatre Conspiracy has a distinguished history as a leader in the development of new work from having presented over 30 world premiere plays in Fort Myers. I can’t wait to see how audiences react to this amazing season. Be sure to join us for the very best of live theatre in SWFL!” -Bill Taylor, Producing Artistic Director Final Weekend of August Wilson’s Radio Golf October 27 & 28 at 7:30 pm and October 29 at 2:00 PM Directed by Sonya McCarter To gentrify or not to gentrify? Radio Golf by August Wilson explores the often-debated question: can revitalization occur without community displacement? Both moving and funny, Radio Golf is the culmination of August Wilson’s ten-play American Century Cycle chronicling each decade of African-American life in the twentieth century. This production is generously sponsored by Noreen Raney.
