The Art of Fences

ahein — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 15:00:44 +0000

Come and support local artists and treat yourself with a night out to the theater. At the CSM La Campus, the CSM theater company is presenting the play “Fences.” This work by August Wilson follows the life of a man who reached his peak as a baseball player in the Negro baseball leagues in 1957, who was at that time excluded from playing in the major leagues because of his skin color. He carries resentment throughout his life, tainting his relationship with both his wife and son, the latter of whom wants to be a baseball star himself. Call 301-934-7828 for tickets or visit BxOffc@csmd.edu or www.csmd.edu/arts.
